I understand that it's generated a private key then the CSR
certificate is created and next it's created CA certificate but it's
already created in the previous steps. Why do this again?

openssl genrsa: generates an RSA private key openssl req: generates a certificate request openssl ca: signs the certificate request The README just documents the bare minimum to get the HTTPS support going, your question is more about openssl than LibreOffice. ;-) Regards, Miklos
