Try "https://"; instead of "ssl://", this is what is normally done.
As for your problem. It look like the private key when generated was too short, this can be overcomed by entering more characters at the time of the generation of hte key. But from your comments, you mentioned that from the article at OpenSSL that it either not exist or is too short and that you mentioned that you have both. So, if this is the case, then it seem that it had nothing to do with being too short. Just that there is no key, so that in turn is too short because it isn't there. I don't have an idea of what is going on.

I keep getting an error: PRNG not seeded. OpenSSL says http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#USER1 says: If the default seeding file [/dev/random or /dev/urandom] does not exist or is too short, the "PRNG not seeded" error message may occur. Now, both of these exist, but I'm not sure how to tell if they are too short... has anyone used fsockopen("ssl://"...) successfully? I've read through the php site, apache, and openssl...but I'm not finding a solution. Is there something that may have been overlooked when the 3 were compiled? Do you need to create a certificate? The answer may be staring me right in the face & I'm just not seeing it.Any point in the right direction would be appreciated.
