Actually, this one is a self-signed certificate, but I tried with a new one using your command, just to be safe.
My Vhost is configured in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf, so that's where I adjusted the path to test.pem The page is still not available. I was probably wrong though giving the apachectl -S error as cause of the problem (or was I?). I should have run it with sudo, in which case it would have looked like this: ~$ sudo apachectl -SAH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message VirtualHost configuration: *:80 127.0.1.1 (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default-mythbuntu.conf:1) *:443 127.0.1.1 (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf:11) ServerRoot: "/etc/apache2" Main DocumentRoot: "/var/www" Main ErrorLog: "/var/log/apache2/error.log" Mutex ssl-stapling: using_defaults Mutex ssl-cache: using_defaults Mutex default: dir="/var/lock/apache2" mechanism=fcntl Mutex mpm-accept: using_defaults Mutex watchdog-callback: using_defaults Mutex rewrite-map: using_defaults PidFile: "/var/run/apache2/apache2.pid" Define: DUMP_VHOSTS Define: DUMP_RUN_CFG User: name="www-data" id=33 Group: name="www-data" id=33 Could it be that Apache does not run as root when trying to access the key file? If that is not the problem, then I am at a loss. I forgot to say that not all browsers show the problem as "corrupted content" error. In others, There is a warning that the site is not to be trusted (which is normal because of the certificate being self-signed), but the option to ignore the warning and create an exception is disabled / not working.
