Hello fellow humans!
I am trying desperately to discover the new skill of installing an SSL certificate on an Apache server which is (hopefully) SSL enabled. .I start the server: /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl startssl It starts cleanly! (I think) http://molions.com/joe/apache-ssl_error_log.txt .No my problems are uncovered. I can connect to port 443 on my virtual server while using the openssh s_client tool at my servers shell. I cannot, however, do a normal client connection from another machine's web browser (netscape, IE, Opera, --all new versions). I have read high and low, and have learned a great deal, but still am at a loss of what is wrong. I have compiled all of the variables that I have found to have a direct effect upon the operation of ssl and included them below for your expert opinions. .I believe I have accomplished some level of success as evidenced by this ssl_engine_log snip http://molions.com/joe/ssl_engine_log_snip.txt I am concerned about the whole "Init: 1st startup round (still not detached)" bit in the ssl_engine_log. I don't understand why it must go through 2 startup rounds. Is this a problem? .When I run curl secure.mydomain.com:443 from the ssl server, it spits out all of the html. But I am having no success having a client browser on another machine connect to port 443 on this virtual server. .Here is what I get when I run the command: "openssl s_client -connect secure.mydomain.com:443 -state" http://molions.com/joe/openssl-s_client_-connect.txt (I've changed the names to protect the innocent ;) .Here are my httpd.conf ssl tidbits http://molions.com/joe/httpd.conf.tidbits.txt .Here is some of my directory proof that the files are there and who can do what with them http://molions.com/joe/ssl_directory_structure.txt If I have configured something totally wrong (I'm sure), please tell me. I realize I still have so much to learn. Any help at all will be immensely appreciated.
