Dear All,

Please help me to restart the apache2 becasue i am try it with ssl support. I get the following error

Syntax error on line 108 of /etc/apache2/default-server.conf:
SSLCipherSuite takes one argument, Colon-delimited list of permitted SSL Ciphers (`XXX:…:XXX’ - see manual)

here is what i have pasted in /etc/apache2/default-server.conf

SSLEngine on
SSLCipherSuite
ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP:+eNULL
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl.crt/server.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl.key/server.key

2 
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP:+eNULL

You have a space there, in the SSLv2. Just copy paste my line to your configuration and make sure you don’t accidentally “cut the line”.

3 
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSL v2:+EXP:+eNULL

The error message says that this should be in one line. But, I am not sure about the actual string you passed is correct or not because it doesn’t look like valid SSL Cipher Suite string.
May be, you can just say something like follows to support ALL.

SSLCipherSuite ALL

Dear All,

I have put the following lines into default-server.conf

SSLEngine on
SSLCipherSuite ALL
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl.crt/server.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl.key/server.key

I have following error

testing:/etc/apache2 # rcapache2 restart
Syntax OK
Starting httpd2 (prefork) startproc: exit status of parent of /usr/sbin/httpd2-prefork: 1
failed

I think I set apache up properly (I have done so in the past). But it
is not working. It claims that the ports are in use, but they don’t seem to be:
jarfx:/var/log/apache2 # netstat -tan

And then
jarfx:/var/log/apache2 # rcapache2 start
Starting httpd2 (prefork) (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could
not bind to address ::]:443
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address
0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
startproc: exit status of parent of /usr/sbin/httpd2-prefork: 1

The unable to open logs points to a permissions issue.

I uninstalled apache, deleted /etc/apache2, and /etc/sysconfig/
apache2, and reinstalled and reconfigured, and it still will not work.
I would love some sugestions.

Thanks,
Jim
