RE: [users@httpd] apache and ssl

[Dave Henderson]

Oliver,

    Thanks for the info.  I will start to work on the certificate/key situation once I get the some of these other issues worked out.  Are you overly familiar with key creation, etc?

Thanks,
Dave

If you don't want to enter the passphrase at each start of Apache
and to eliminate th eoccurance of this error,
than you will have to delete the passphrase from your KEY.

Make this
- Take your "SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/keys/sitename.com.key"
- openssl rsa -in /etc/apache2/ssl/keys/sitename.com.key -out /etc/apache2/ssl/keys/sitename.com.nopp.key
- You will be asked for the passphrase
- Than change in your config:
from
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/keys/sitename.com.key
to
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/keys/sitename.com.nopp.key
[see also http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ssl/ssl_faq.html#removepassphrase]


Than it will never asked again an the above error should not come again.

bye
Oliver
