When I accidentially started Apache-1.3.3 + mod_ssl_2.1.0 as an ordinary user,
I got:
Syntax error on line 418 of /opt/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
SSLCertificateKeyFile: file not exists or empty
/opt/apache/sbin/apachectl startssl: httpd could not be started
Exit 3
Well, I don't totally agree with this error message.
a) The message could be improved (better englich) and could include the name
of the file which supposedly didn't exist.
(SSLCertificateKeyFile: file "/opt/apache/conf/blah.key" not found or empty)
b) mod_ssl should only say "File doesn't exist" when it really didn't exist,
but not in the case when it *DOES* exist but is read protected for the
super user only (as in my situation).
Other than that, mod_ssl 2.1.0 runs just *perfectly*, and the documentation
is an optical pleasure.
