It might be that there is a problem with the format of the certificate. Try both: openssl x509 -text -inform DER -in /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl/server.crt and openssl x509 -text -inform PEM -in /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl/server.crt If the first works, but the second doesn't you received your certificate in DER format. (Openssl expects PEM unless you tell it otherwise) You can convert it using: openssl x509 -inform DER -outform PEM -in <infile> -out <outfile> Krist -- krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx krist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Bremgarten b.
