I'm trying to make use of SSL on my server box. I followed the wiki at http://gentoo-wiki.com/Apache_Modules_mod_ssl on my client PC and everything worked right. However, when I try it on my server PC and I go to start Apache with the new configs for SSL, Apache won't start and I get the following output to /var/log/apache2/error_log:
bullet ssl # cat /var/log/apache2/error_log [Tue Jul 11 17:55:11 2006] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/sbin/suexec2) [Tue Jul 11 17:55:11 2006] [error] Init: Unable to read server certificate from file /usr/lib/apache2/conf/ssl/server.pem [Tue Jul 11 17:55:11 2006] [error] SSL Library Error: 218529960 error:0D0680A8:asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_CHECK_TLEN:wrong tag [Tue Jul 11 17:55:11 2006] [error] SSL Library Error: 218595386 error:0D07803A:asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_ITEM_EX_D2I:nested asn1 error The permissions on the files in /usr/lib/apache2/conf/ssl are the same on both my client and server box.

Why can't I start Apache with SSL? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
