Hey Matias thank you for the assistance, I ended up discovering I had an additional configuration file included that had additional SSL directives defined in it. When I commented out this configuration (as everything present in it was also present in my main configuration) it seemed to start up without issue. The file that I commented out contained: SSLEngine on SSLOptions StdEnvVars StrictRequire SSLCompression off SSLProtocol All -SSLv2 -SSLv3 SSLHonorCipherOrder on SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!LOW:!SSLv2:!EXP:!NULL:RC4+SHA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM SSLRandomSeed startup file:/dev/urandom 512 SSLRandomSeed connect file:/dev/urandom 512 SSLSessionCacheTimeout 300 Everything in that file is present in my mainline configuration as well except for the SSLHonorCipherOrder. Do you think the issue was that the SSLEngine on was defined both inside and outside of my VirtualHost?
