I haven't nailed down this bug yet, but here is the symptom: * on FreeBSD-4.5RC, * install Apache-1.3.23+mod_ssl, but don't "make certificate" * apachectl startssl
then I see this in the error log: [Fri Jan 25 15:28:44 2002] [error] mod_ssl: Init: Unable to read server certificate f rom file /opt/apache/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt (OpenSSL library error follows) [Fri Jan 25 15:28:44 2002] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D0680A8:asn1 encoding routines:ASN 1_CHECK_TLEN:wrong tag [Fri Jan 25 15:28:44 2002] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D07803A:asn1 encoding routines:ASN 1_ITEM_EX_D2I:nested asn1 error httpd in free(): warning: modified (chunk-) pointer httpd in free(): warning: modified (chunk-) pointer I expect the first messages. The latter two come from libc: /usr/src/lib/libc/stdlib/malloc.c: ... /* Check the pointer for sane values */ if (((u_long)ptr & ((*mp)->size-1))) { wrtwarning("modified (chunk-) pointer\n"); return 0; } ... Is it possible that something has been tramped upon?
