Hi there, This *really* should be on modssl-users ... please take any further questions and discussion there. This list is for users of OpenSSL. Your problem and any solutions to it are specific to modssl.
I am on modssl-users too - so if you are not already subscribed, please do so, and reply to this post on that list (if you wish to reply that is). I have CC'd that list for your convenience. [snip] > /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log contains the following two lines > > > [Mon Dec 17 14:39:17 2001] [error] mod_ssl: Init: (192.168.1.98:443) > Unable to configure RSA server private key (OpenSSL library error > follows) [Mon Dec 17 14:39:17 2001] [error] OpenSSL: error:0B080074:x509 > certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch Look at the "OpenSSL library error"; - the area of code is "x509 certificate routines", - the specific function is "X509_check_private_key" - the reason is "key values mismatch". It looks like the certificate you've specified and the private key you've specified don't match one another. That's why the certificate code ("x509"), when checking the private key ("X509_check_private_key"), found a mismatch. > i could not make out anything from these then you didn't read them. The line before the one I disected also mentioned "Unable to configure RSA server private key". This suggests of course that it was in the midst of trying to "configure the RSA private key" when it failed. Moving on to that second line - it clearly suggests that the *reason* the private key was rejected was because it did not match up with the provided certificate.
