Hi all, I have installed apache 1.3.14 with modssl 2.7.1 & openssl 0.9.6 on Solaris 8 (SPARC). I created a certificate request for Verisign Secure site server certificate and also generated a self signed certificate. Untill I get the valid certificate from Verisign I was using the self signed certificate. It was working fine , once after getting the Verisign certificate I replaced the existing certificate with the new one as per the instructions given in the verisign site. When I tried to start the apache server I got this error 'httpd could not be started' The error log file gives bit more details , like **** error ***** [Tue Feb 6 14:56:50 2001] [error] mod_ssl: Init: Unable to read server certificate from file /usr/local/ssl/certs/www.shaw.com.sg.crt (OpenSSL library error follows) [Tue Feb 6 14:56:50 2001] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D09F007:asn1 encoding routines:d2i_X509:expecting an asn1 sequence **************** I couldnt get anything from this message, Is this a problem with the certificate or something wrong in my installations? I dont know why I dont have any problems when I run with the self signed certificate? I approached Verisign many times, I got the standard, same, auto reply as many times , asking me to contact the server software vendors. Almost everybody is trying to redirect me to somebody else rather than giving me a solution. I will be thankful if atleast anyone can give me a solution (clearly) to solve this problem. I need to solve this problem very urgently. please. thanks in advance regards Babu __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
