Unless you absolutely need SSL support, edit the configuration so as not to use SSL. If you do want to use SSL, you will probably want to generate yourself a self-signed certificate, and then get a real cert from a 3rd party cert provider when you are ready to go into production. See http://www.openssl.org/docs/HOWTO/certificates.txt Place the resulting files in the expected locations, and give it a go.
