Hi all, I am having some strange behaviour from mod_ssl, and am struggling to get the the bottom of the behaviour.
I have a client trying to connect to a mod_ssl server using client certs, and the client says that mod_ssl rejected the connection with "handshake failure". Fair enough, let's head to the server and look in the logfile, it will tell us the reason for the handshake failure. All I see in error_log is this: [Thu May 29 17:07:53.638577 2014] [ssl:info] [pid 14881:tid 140639962363648] [client xx.xx.xx.xx:43405] AH01998: Connection closed to child 140 with abortive shutdown (server foo.bar.example.net:443) What I'm expecting to see in the error log is the reason that the connection was closed, rather than the fact it closed. I tried setting "LogLevel debug", and still no change in behaviour: mod_ssl is completely silent on the issue of why this connection is rejected. Does mod_ssl have error handling anomalies that people are aware of? What does one have to do to coax some kind of explanation for the failure out of mod_ssl? I am confident if I can break the radio silence and get an error message I can solve the problem, but until mod_ssl stops playing mute I am stuck. Ring any bells? This is httpd v2.4.9.
