Hi list folk!
I'm having trouble getting mod_ssl working on a fresh install of apache
2.0 on SUSE Linux 9.
The problem: when I start apache with 'APACHE_SERVER_FLAGS="-D SSL"' in
my sysconfig/apache2 file, it fails with no explanation: no errors in
the error log, no errors on the console, other than returning "failed".
When I start apache without "-D SSL", it runs with no problem, and I can
use port 443 - it just points to the default location on my server.
Running "apache extreme-configtest" yields "Syntax: OK". This is the
first time I've set up a secure site, so I assume I'm either missing
something obvious or subtle... any help or advice is most appreciated!
My configuration:
---> my sysconfig/apache2 file contains:
APACHE_SERVER_FLAGS="-D SSL"
APACHE_MODULES="... ssl ..."
(Consequently... "LoadModule ssl_module
/usr/lib/apache2-prefork/mod_ssl.so" is in my loadmodule.conf)
---> My VHost file contains:
<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot (my path)
ServerName *:443
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error_log
TransferLog /var/log/apache2/access_log
SSLEngine on
SSLCipherSuite (default)
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl.crt/server.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl.key/server.key
<Files ~ "\.(cgi|shtml|phtml|php3?)$">
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Files>
<Directory "/srv/www/cgi-bin">
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Directory>
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/ssl_request_log ssl_combined
</VirtualHost>
The certificate files are pointing to the correct place, and I've
created self-signed keys/certs several times in several places with
several different methods - to no effect - and am somewhat confident
that the keys/certs are not the problem.
---> My "Directory" directive for the SSL document root directory contains:
SSLRequireSSL
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
Options Includes
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
---> My ssl-global.conf file contains:
AddType application/x-x509-ca-cert .crt
AddType application/x-pkcs7-crl .crl
SSLPassPhraseDialog builtin
SSLSessionCache dbm:/var/lib/apache2/ssl_scache
SSLSessionCacheTimeout 600
SSLMutex file:/var/lib/apache2/ssl_mutex
SSLRandomSeed startup builtin
SSLRandomSeed connect builtin
Thanks for any help you can give!
