Hello everyone,
I'm coming from a Debian background and am having a hard time wrapping
my head around the way RHEL5 Apache/SSL is configured. Perhaps someone
here can shed some light on this topic for me.
First of all, I am under the understanding that there is no way to
enable SSL on a name-based virtual host. That's fine, as I have a number
of IP's to work with. However I'm having trouble getting any more than
one SSL/IP instance functioning. When I add a second SSL virtual host in
conf.d/ssl.conf I get this in the log:
Invalid method in request \x16\x03\x01
Also, I generated a key, as instructed in the RHEL5 documentation, using
genkey, but I keep getting this email:
################# SSL Certificate Warning ################
Certificate for hostname 'host.foo.com', in file:
/etc/pki/tls/certs/host.foo.cert
The certificate needs to be renewed; this can be done
using the 'genkey' program.
Browsers will not be able to correctly connect to this
web site using SSL until the certificate is renewed.
##########################################################
Generated by certwatch(1)
I'm not using a CA cert, just a homemade one, and there is nothing in
the documentation about renewing. Just creating. I've tried re-creating
it, and get the same email the next day.
One final thing, is I would like to force SSL in a certain directory.
For example if someone browses to: http://host.foo.com/secure/ I want
them to automatically be forced into SSL. There are counless examples
I've found via. google using mod_rewrite, none of which work for me at
all. Am I missing something here? No errors in the logs, just doesn't do
anything. I've tried putting the rewrite rules in the ssl.conf, and in
the httpd.conf with no difference.
Thanks for any help on these SSL issues.
-Nick
