cannot connect to SSL

hey people,

ive racked my brain over this one! i have enabled SSL for a site and in the SSL tab i have created a certificate, which upon loggin out and back in the settings are still there, however cannot connect to https://mydomain.com.au

amnything else i need to do?




i have restarted the server and stillnothing... also i have tried it on multiple domains, not just the one.... and i cannot connect at all

 

in ie i get :

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems


in fireforx i get:

This webpage is not available.

The webpage at https://mydomain.com.au might be temp down or it may have have moved permanentkyto a new web address

+ more info

ERROR 102 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED): Unknown error.


so confused.

 

What's the output of

Code:

netstat -tap

?
Are there any errors in that web site's error log?

 

Code:

in relation to the error log, there is a little bit or error logs that are only relevant to june this year in relation to a client trying to access a file that doesnt exist....

 

Your Apache isn't listening on port 443. Can you check your Apache configuration if you have

Code:

Listen 443

somewhere?

 

i checked

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

i couldnt find it, the only thing i could find was

listen 80,obviously for standard http

i also checked

/root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

and it wasnt in there either

 

Please add

Code:

Listen 443

below

Code:

Listen 80

in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and restart Apache.

 

yeah i assumed thats what would be needed to do, so i added it and restarted it, the address at https://mydomain.com.au still has same error and http://mydomain.com.au:443 takes me to the apache test page....

 

Which distribution do you use? Which guide (URL) did you use to set it up?

 

CentOS release 5.3 (Final)
and i used your perfect serverguide for centos 5.3
