    Hi Guys,

    I have just moved all my sites from an older box to a new one -both ISPconfig.
    I want to use the same cert for the site as before - So enabled SSL, pasted cert request (Made sure all details were correct as the server name is the same too). Saved. Then added the Cert and saved.

    Rebooted the server just to make sure.
    However I get
    SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. (Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)

    Only other site is the ISPconfig on https on port 8080
    lsof -i :443
    COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
    apache2 4501 root 6u IPv4 26790 0t0 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
    apache2 4504 www-data 6u IPv4 26790 0t0 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
    apache2 4505 www-data 6u IPv4 26790 0t0 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
    apache2 4524 www-data 6u IPv4 26790 0t0 TCP *:https (LISTEN)

    make sure that you inserted the ssl key and cert from old server, and not just the cert. a cert will not work without the ssl key that belongs to it.

    Did you try generating a new self signed cert for testing? You can always move your real cert (.key and .crt) back in if that was not the problem.
