Hi All,

I am trying to do a https access with virtual hosting with apache.

But when I install mod_ssl rpm httpd server does not start again

I am stumped

httpd -t shows syntax is OK

Regards,

Athreya

Hi,

You should check the apache error_log for hints.

Thanks all for the reply.

I got the solution. I was configuring httpd.conf with ssl, But the key and certs were wrong. Also, I was not sure about how to add the correct key and cert.
