Attempting to set up a HTTPS server. Apache is installed and works. Using yast–> networking–> http server results in a problem
After opening http server configuration, the first step performed was to open port 443 for an ssl socket.
After opening the “hosts” tab, I clicked add.
Configuration for server name, server contents root and server email went okay.
I clicked "determine request server by server IP address. I set this to 192.168.1.39, which is indicated by running the command “ifconfig” as super user.
After clicking next, the screen for virtual host details comes up. I clicked the check box for “enable ssl support …”.
Note, I had previously created the key, the certificate and certificate signing request using openssl, using the aes256 encryption option.
The tool is able to browse to the certificate file path, and I’m able to select the certificate file.
The tool is able to browse to the key file path. However, when I go to select the key file, an error window pops up stating “error, enter the key file”.
I’ve tried moving the key to a different directory, including /etc/apache2/ssl.key, without any luck. I also tried renaming the key file to ca.key.
Any help would be appreciated.
