The "ScratchPad" page has been changed by TomasPospisek: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/ScratchPad?action=diff&rev1=4&rev2=5 Comment: add screenshot (unfortunately the apache wiki doesn't seem to allow to upload images?) The important thing to take away from the [[http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sudeepg/archive/2009/02/16/debugging-ssl-handshake-failure-using-network-monitor-a-scenario.aspx|the document]] is that SSL contains an alert protocol, that can be seen and found in the transmitted TCP packets of an SSL communication, that contains an error code specifying containing the reason why a communication failed to be set up. + {{http://tpo.sourcepole.ch/opaque/wireshark-https.png|Wireshark screenshot}} + As you can see in the screenshot, the two bytes contained in the "Alert Message" contain the error code "2f", which can be looked up in the respective [[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2246#section-7.2|rfc]]. In this case it's the code 47 (0x2f), which means "illegal_parameter" - there was some property of the certificate that the server (!) didn't like and refuses to accept. In our case the server was expecting a different issuer CN. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: docs-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: docs-h...@httpd.apache.org
