All, Apologies if this is a FAQ and I should RTFM but I don't seem to find the right place to look. How do I enable my Apache 2 web server with SSL? I followed the advise here: http://docs.sun.com/source/819-5536-11/7_SSL_Apache.html#59207 And here: http://developer.softwareag.com/tamino/documentation/ssl/ssl_support/apa che.htm Both seem similar but they didn't work. When I start it up with ./apachectl start (or startssl), it throws out the following message: [Tue May 15 17:24:27 2007] [error] (EAI 8)host/servname not known: Cannot resolve host name add --- ignoring! Also I'm getting and SSL certificate error: [Tue May 15 17:24:29 2007] [error] Init: Unable to read server certificate from file /usr/l ocal/apache2/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt [Tue May 15 17:24:29 2007] [error] SSL Library Error: 218529960 error:0D0680A8:asn1 encodin g routines:ASN1_CHECK_TLEN:wrong tag [Tue May 15 17:24:29 2007] [error] SSL Library Error: 218595386 error:0D07803A:asn1 encodin g routines:ASN1_ITEM_EX_D2I:nested asn1 error
the "host/servname not known:" would seem to indicate that your hostname is not registered with DNS I use gentoo and this worked for me: http://gentoo-wiki.com/Apache_Modules_mod_ssl but on your distro it may be quite different you may also get more help here if you post the relevant parts of your httpd.conf in case somone can spot a mistake
