Full_Name: Baird J. Ramsey Version: 2.3.5 OS: linux (Red Hat 6.0) Submission from: (NULL) (209.223.86.50) I have mod_ssl compiled with mm, openssl installed on the system, and have added php3 (via DSO). It will run from time to time - but if I need to restart the server when changing the config file, I can't do it. I will stop the server using apachectrl startssl command and get the following: [root@gandalf bjramsey]# apachectl startssl Apache/1.3.6 mod_ssl/2.3.5 (Pass Phrase Dialog) Some of your private key files are encrypted for security reasons. In order to read them you have to provide us with the pass phrases. Server www.g3sys.com:443 Enter pass phrase: Apache:mod_ssl:Error: Private key not found. **Stopped /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl startssl: httpd could not be started The httpd command shows this: [root@gandalf bjramsey]# httpd -DSSL Apache/1.3.6 mod_ssl/2.3.5 (Pass Phrase Dialog) Some of your private key files are encrypted for security reasons. In order to read them you have to provide us with the pass phrases. Server www.g3sys.com:443 Enter pass phrase: Apache:mod_ssl:Error: Private key not found. **Stopped The error log shows the following: [Wed Jul 7 10:24:59 1999] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D09B08F:asn1 encoding routine s:d2i_PrivateKey:unknown public key type [Wed Jul 7 10:26:12 1999] [error] mod_ssl: Init: Private key not found. (OpenSSL library error follows) These two repeat again and again, untill it works... (and that is just exactly what I mean. I will wait for a while (might be an hour, or might be a day, and then it will work. There does not seem to be any logic to the amount of time - once it was three days, another time it was a few minutes... A reboot will not fix the problem, nore will anything else that I can find.) The odd thing is that when it will work, it works fine untill I have to restart the service again. I am having a lot of trouble with this, since it is a production server, and we have some major ecomerce people looking at hosting with us. I would appriciate any help you can offer. I am not a guru, so don't exclude plain and simple stupidity on my part. If there is anything else that you need, let me know...
