I've had apache1.3.9+mod_ssl running for a while using a self signed cert. I
paid for a thawte cert went throught the setup but apache won't start. The
only changes to the httpd.conf that i've made was commenting out the old
SSLCertificateFile and SSLCertificateKeyFile and replacing it with the new
paths to the new key and thawte signed cert.

The only difference i can see between the server.crt (old) and the new
www.mastery.ca.crt is there is a header in the server.crt as follows:

Certificate:
    Data:
        Version: 1 (0x0)
        Serial Number: 3 (0x3)
        Signature Algorithm: md5WithRSAEncryption
        Issuer: C=CA, ST=Ontario, L=Windsor, O=Mastery Group of Canada Inc,
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
        Validity
            Not Before: Dec 19 23:31:56 2000 GMT
            Not After : Dec 19 23:31:56 2001 GMT
        Subject: C=CA, ST=Ontario, L=Windsor, O=Mastery Group of Canada
Inc., [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        Subject Public Key Info:
            Public Key Algorithm: rsaEncryption
            RSA Public Key: (1024 bit)
                Modulus (1024 bit):
... etc
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

where as the new cert issued by thawte only has the BEGIN + END CERTIFICATE
portions.


I used the following to generate the key:

$ openssl genrsa -des3 -rand file1:file2:...:file5 -out
www.virtualhost.com.key 1024

$ openssl req -new -key www.mastery.ca.key -out www.mastery.ca.csr


Can someone please help me out?
