Greetings Nancy et al,
Please take a look at the following information:
http://www.apache-ssl.org/docs.html#SSLVerifyClient
I think you may have coded you SSLVerifyClient statement incorrectly.
Also, about the Virtual host logs, if the following statements point to unique
files for the virtual host in question, then the errors contained in these logs
refer to this virtual host only. If the statements point to a common set of
files used by all hosts, then the errors reported could be for any of the hosts
using the log files:
ErrorLog logs/ssl-error_log
TransferLog logs/ssl-access_log
Best regards.

Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Verisign signatures with Apache server
Roger et al,
Thanks for your help. I have been able to resolve the Private key issue by
installing the new Verisign certificates, but now I am running into a new issue:
Error_Log has the following warning message : Session Cache is not configured
[hint: SSLSessionCache]
ssl-error_log has the following error message : [error] Unable to configure
verify locations for client authentication
I use following command to start the Apache server instead of "apachectl":
./httpd -k start -f /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd-cob-certs.conf
Here is the Virtual host configuration we have in the "httpd-cob-certs.conf"
file. The only difference between this and the one we were using for
self-signed is the directory location in the SSL parameters.
<VirtualHost serverName:PortNumber>
ProxyRequests Off
SSLProxyEngine On
ProxyVia On
RequestHeader set Front-End-Htps "On"
SSLEngine On
SSLProtocol ALL
SSLCertificateFile /export/home/pp/newVersignCerts/pubkey.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /export/home/pp/newVersignCerts/key.key
SSLCACertificateFile /export/home/pp/newVersignCerts/IntermediateCA.crt
SSLVerifyClient require
SSLVerifyDepth 1
SSLCACertificatePath /app1/webMethods6/IntegrationServer/config/certs/cas
#end of setup the Require Certificate
ErrorLog logs/ssl-error_log
TransferLog logs/ssl-access_log
ProxyPass / <https://ServerName:PortNumber/> https://ServerName:PortNumber/
ProxyPassReverse / <https://ServerName:PortNumber/>
https://ServerName:PortNumber/
ProxyPreserveHost On
</VirtualHost>
Did you get this resolved? Private key issue has been resolved by installing
the new verisign certs.
If not, then what OS version and APACHE version are you running on?
Its Solaris9 & Apache2
When does the error occur?
When we start the Apache server with Verisign certs the warning & error
messages are logged in the Error_log and ssl-error_log files. The strange thing
is we dont get any issue when using self-signed certs.
Did you enable logging at the Virtual host level? If so, have you looked at the
logs.
I m not sure, Could you tell us how do we check if logging is enabled at
Virtual host level? Where can we find the log files?
