Remember that any directives inside the port 443 virtual host will be ignored if you run apache from port 80 only. So check you don't have any critical directives inside the 443 VH. E.g did you define a DocumentRoot in your port 80 virtual host? A "connection refused" error usually means that apache is *not* listening on the IP and port you requested.. This could happen if your Listen directives and VirtualHost IPs are a bit mixed up. I usually make them very specific, e.g. Listen 192.168.1.1:80 <VirtualHost 192.168.1.1:80> .. HTTP stuff </VirtualHost> Listen 192.168.1.1:443 <VirtualHost 192.168.1.1:443> .. SSL stuff </VirtualHost> Double check all those directives.
