Package: apache2-common Version: 2.0.52-3 I cannot find documentation for creating a secure (https) VirtualHost, so I am trying to combine what I know works from an existing apache1.3 site with files/directories/examples that come with apache2 and apache2-common.
I ran "a2enmod ssl" and restarted apache2 without any errors. Next I copied /usr/share/doc/apache2/examples/ssl.conf to /etc/apache2/sites-available/secure and removed any lines which were present in /etc/apache2/mods-available/ssl.conf. When I ran "a2ensite secure" and restarted apache2, I get the error: Starting web server: Apache2[Sat Nov 20 09:35:19 2004] [error] VirtualHost _default_:443 -- mixing * ports and non-* ports with a NameVirtualHost address is not supported, proceeding with undefined results The apache2 service did not start. I verified that the default site has the follwing two directives: NameVirtualHost * <VirtualHost *> I then changed /etc/apache2/sites-available/secure from: <VirtualHost _default_:443> to: <VirtualHost *:443> When I start apache2 I get an almost identical error message: Starting web server: Apache2[Sat Nov 20 09:39:52 2004] [error] VirtualHost *:443 -- mixing * ports and non-* ports with a NameVirtualHost address is not supported, proceeding with undefined results The apache2 service did not start. I then ran "a2dissite secure" and started apache2. The apache2 service runs on port 80 as expected.
