The only thing I can see as strange with that configuration is that you
didn't get an error with http://localhost:443. The server should have
responded that you used the wrong protocol, since it would expect an SSL
connection to that that port. that is why you have the s after http (to
indicate a different protocol. 

In other words

http://localhost is equivalent to http://localhost:80
https://localhost is equivalent to https://localhost:443

Other than that, you can't mix and match them.

Subject: http://localhost:443 reurns normal http page


I have a strange problem  which has probably got something to do with my
config file.

Apache + modssl (latest versions) on win32 (NT 4 sp5)

http://localhost works
https://localhost works
but http://localhost:443 returns a page but does not use a secure
connection

Below are the most important parameters. Any help much appreciated.

Port 80

Listen 80
Listen 443


SSLMutex sem
SSLRandomSeed startup builtin
SSLSessionCache none

SSLLog logs/SSL.log
SSLLogLevel debug

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.55:443>
 ServerName lappie.collies.nl
 DocumentRoot "e:\opensource\apache\htdocs"

 SSLEngine On
 SSLCertificateFile conf/ssl/lappie.cert
 SSLCertificateKeyFile conf/ssl/lappie.key

</VirtualHost>
