I knew it ... I knew it!

The instant I posted this I knew I would find the problem and it would be my 
own fault.

For posterity the issue was the private key file was password protected.  Use 
openssl to remove the password and *BAM*  services start up fine.

My apologies for the false alarm, hopefully someone else can learn from my 
mistake.

Subject: [PacketFence-users] Replacing snake oil certs with production certs.

All:

This is a new PFv8.0.1 3 node cluster install.

Are there any instructions for installing new production certs on the PF 
servers in a cluster?

I have a new cert that I am trying to install but when I do the httpd services 
fail to restart.

I'm thinking the certs need to be processed into a format that PF likes, I just 
don't know what that format is.

I renamed the self signed cert and key file to old-server.crt and 
old-server.key, then copied my new cert and key file, and named them server.crt 
and server.key.  Next I chown'ed and chmod'ed the new certs to be pf:pf 660 
(which is what the default certs are).

When I bounce the httpd.portal and/or httpd.admin the services stop but fail to 
start again.  Reverting the certs fixes the issue.

Any guidance would be happily accepted.
