I found the entry in apache, not apache2. I also notice that it (SSL) would only try to come up if I restarted apache & not apache2. Also, I had to shut down Apache2 otherwise Apache with SSL wouldn't come up which is very confusing to a newbie! Netstat shows https listening but I can't get a connection with the browser. Any more suggestions? I am sure there is a better way to do this, so please pardon my lack of experience. Eric Stefan.Junge@ssi-schaefer.de wrote:
Hi Eric,
Have you configuered the file /etc/sysconfig/apache ? There is a setting to enable SSL: HTTPD_SEC_MOD_SSL=yes.
Greetings

I followed the directions from http://www.eclectica.ca/howto/ssl-cert-howto.php to create and use SSL certificates. I was able to successfully create the certificates for testing but cannot get an ssl connection via my browser to the site. I added the site certificate and private key paths to the httpd.conf like below from the 'how to': SSLCertificateFile /home/httpd/ssl/cert.pem SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/httpd/ssl/key.pem
This is my first attempt at using SSL with Apache so is there something I am missing? The how to simply says to put these entries in the httpd.conf and restart Apache. mod_ssl is also installed.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric
