RE: mod_ssl: Init: Failed to generate temporary 512 bit RSA private key
Hi. I had the same error signalation "suexec: disabled; invalid wrapper /usr/local/apache/bin/suexec" (everytime I do ./httpd -l) when I tried, in a wrong way, to add ssl module and jrun module to apache configuration. I think, but I'm not sure, that the error is inside the APACI_ARGS. I solved my problem by editing the src/Configuration uncommenting (or adding) the corresponding AddModule directive.

I've been trying to add a couple of modules to my Apache, and just can't seem to get it to do it's thing. Forgive me if I tell you too much, but I'm just trying to be thorough. STEP 1: === perl Makefile.PL USE_APACI=1 USE_DSO=0 EVERYTHING=1 \ DO_HTTPD=1 SSL_BASE=/usr/local/ssl \ APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.12/src\ APACI_ARGS=--enable-module=ssl,--enable-module=auth_dbm,--enable-modul e=info,--enable-module=rewrite,--enable-module=usertrack This runs smoothly. STEP 2: make This, too, runs smoothly. == STEP 3: make test Here's the problem. It runs fine till t/TEST tries to spawn a server and hit it. The server fails at init because it can't generate a temporary 512 bit RSA private key. I've moved to the apache directory and run "make certificate" before the "make test", but it doesn't help. If I'm not mistaken, I had this problem when I was first installing the server, and ended up skipping the test. It installed and has been working fine. I'd just rather have a clean test before I try installing and using the new binary now that it's in production. Anybody got a suggestion?

Re:
I am sure there is a way, but I just added a virtual host and changed the document root to the one directory I wanted to have SSL only. Instead of the domain name, I used the ip address.

This isn't possible. The directive which switches on SSL functionality is "SSLEngine on" and this directive works only in the context of the global server config (so the whole server is SSL) or in a VirtualHost - you cannot operate it in a Directory, for example. What is the big problem with having an extra VirtualHost? Something simple like the following is all you need: ... Main config .. DocumentRoot /main/document/root ..etc. Listen 443 SSLEngine on DocumentRoot /special/ssl/directory/path SSLCertificateFile/home/apache/conf/ssl.crt/my_site.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/apache/conf/ssl.key/my_site.key You still need a whole bunch of other SSL directives (check the manual to see what they do): AddType application/x-x509-ca-cert .crt AddType application/x-pkcs7-crl.crl SSLMutex file:/home/apache/logs/ssl_mutex SSLRandomSeed startup builtin SSLRandomSeed connect builtin SSLLog/home/apache/logs/ssl_engine_log SSLLogLevel info Rgds, Owen Boyle. __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Access to web page with suspended certificate possible!
Hi, I guess I discovered a bug in the CRL checking of mod_ssl, or I just misconfigured my system. The symptoms are the following: I have a web server using SSL on port 443 without access control. I do require client certificates of a CA that I trust to access a sub directory. I told Apache to check for CRLs in a directory. When I start IE, delete its cache and hit the server I get the main page. When I click on the link for the restricted area I get prompted to select a certificate. I select the certificate that I suspended and I can access the page. When I press the "reload" button in IE a couple of times I don't get the page but an error code: 80090320. And the ssl_engine_log shows that my certificate has been revoked. When I press reload again, I get the page, the Apache log shows that it sent the page again. Restarting Apache does not help. Now my question is, why does Apache only sometimes discover that my certificate has been revoked? I think this is a sever security bug! I use Internet Explorer Version 5.00.2014.0216CO with 128 bit encryption and update 3725, German. The web server is Apache Version 1.3.14 with Mod-SSL 2.7.1 and OpenSSL 0.9.6 on Solaris 2.6.

You'll probably have to run a whole seperate server if you aren't using vhosts. The choice of protocol is done before the connection is established; path translation is way later. What you *could* do, however, is to have the index page in that directory check the port number or something. mod_perl makes that pretty easy; Apache::Request probably does, too. I'm not sure off the top of my head how you'd do it without perl. If it's not secure, redirect to the secure server. You could kind of do it anyway, just as a matter of course. Have the index page (I'd recommend a CGI) do an external redirect to the secure socket. Obviously, you have to have an SSL server running somewhere, either as another server or as a vhost or *something*, but then the default page in that directory will redirect to the https:// other-page. But you can't have just one directory be SSL on one server, because the SSL protocol has to be established *WAY* before the server knows what directory the user wants. __ Do You Yahoo!?

RE: ssl connection for a particular directory
Hi Samuel, I'm sorry if my error reporting was a little confusing. The whole server on port 443 runs SSL and has a server certificate. But for one subdirectory I am requiring a client certificate of a certificate authority that I trust. Apache should always check these client certificates against the CRLs. In my set up it only checks it sometimes (average every third request).

May you and all who contributed to its resolution receive skillfully rendered the prurient favors you prefer most from the individual(s) of your choosing. Now, I have a slightly different point of confusion. The "make test" still fails, but leaves the spawned httpd running on the test port. The error log says: [notice] Destruction->DESTROY called for $global_object [Fri Feb 9 16:29:43 2001] [warn] [notice] child_init for process 23323, report any problems to [no address given] But if I hit the port with a browser I can pull the test.shtml page with all the SSI mod_perl calls working fine. I feel a lot better about doing the install now, but I still want to know what the problem is here. FYI, there was an suexec problem before, but I think that's just because this box doesn't have a user "nobody". I edited the test httpd.conf to run as our actual server id and it was happy, at least for that. It's just that I keep coming back to various suexec problems But since the current server runs and suexec's as it should, I'm not too worried about that. I just hate leaving *any* loose ends. _ On a seperate note, the main reason I was doing the recompile was to add in mod_auth_dbm. I finally got a test directory to do a simple request for authentication by ID/password, but now I can't get it to accept my password. I built the file with Apache's dbmmanage, importing a list of id/passwords from a script which used a perl crypt() to encrypt the passwords as it fed them to dbmmanage via pipe in the specified "id:encpwd" format. Everything seems to have gone smoothly enough, but it won't accept the password. What now? :o/ The .htaccess file is: === AuthDBMUserFile /dart10/web/docs/public/test/test AuthType Basic AuthName "password test site" Require valid-user === The DBM is in the directory I'm accessing, just as a test. *sigh* __ Do You Yahoo!?

OK, Looks like another item for the FAQ. Ralf, can you add something for Decryption errors when using Verisign Step Up certs? It looks like when using Verisign step-up certs, they require the line: "SSLRequire %{SSL_CIPHER} >= > 128" to work properly on all browsers. -Dave __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: (newbie q) second-level domain certificate?
It is my understanding that you need a seperate certificate for each subdomain. I seem to remember something about wildcard certificates, but a quick inspection of Thawte/Verisign doesn't show anything. regards, Peter Scott __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Two VirtualHosts?
Greetings, After searching the archives and reading the docs front-to-back, I have come to the conclusion that I must create two separate s for the same domain in order to use https on 443 and http on 80. Is that not completely insane? Why should I have to mirror mod_rewrite and mod_auth info in both of the virtual host's configuration info? The only possible solution (which seems really smart) I've seen is: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modssl&m=91582350819059&w=2 But it doesn't appear this has made it into mod_ssl officially. Using mod_ssl 2.8.0, Apache 1.3.17. Is there any other way to keep from having to duplicate VirtualHost configurations for every single SLL Enabled domain? -- Brian Clark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP is spoken here: 0xE4D0C7C8 __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]
