Hi Damon,
   Could you please put in the corrected part of your httpd.conf file - all
the directives that are relavant to SSL connections.
I am interested in looking at the corrected piece ( and commented pieces as
well).

Rajaram.

I think I've solved my problem and would just like to post the answer
for someone else's reference.

The offending line is:

  SSLProtocol -all +SSLv2

If I take that line out mod_ssl can load the certificate chain. I
presume there's a good reason for this (chains require SSLv3 at a
guess)?

SSLProtocol was originally added because we just couldn't get around
problems with MSIE 4.x connecting with SSL. Although it is a big hack,
the suggested SSL changes in the mod_ssl FAQ just didn't work for us.
I've since removed the SSLProtocol, added a SSL session cache and added
+eNULL to the end of the SSLCipherSuite. Now I'm just waiting to see if
MSIE 4.x users can still connect.

I've also recently seen talk of

  SSLRequire  %{SSL_CIPHER} >= 128

solving the MSIE SGC bug. Has someone confirmed this to be true?

thanks for the help,
Damon.
