Hi,

I have a server on an IP address, say 1.2.3.4 - I have the following in httpd.conf:

NameVirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80

<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80>
DocumentRoot /var/ServerName </VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/ServerName </VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/ServerName dev.domain3.com
</VirtualHost>

I want to make it so that gets pages from a separate (SSL secured) folder.

ssl.conf has a virtual host _default_:443 - if I change this to dev.domain3.com:443 and add change the relevant details, then all the vhosts return blank pages on port 80, and all have the desired outcome for https. (Except that I only wanted to work, yet https:// any of my domains takes me to the same, SSL secured, page.

Where am I going wrong, it's driving me insane!

Thanks for your help.

#   Access Control:
#   With SSLRequire you can do per-directory access control based
#   on arbitrary complex boolean expressions containing server
#   variable checks and other lookup directives.  The syntax is a
#   mixture between C and Perl.  See the mod_ssl documentation
#   for more details.

#            and %{TIME_WDAY} >= 1 and %{TIME_WDAY} <= 5 \
#            and %{TIME_HOUR} >= 8 and %{TIME_HOUR} <= 20       ) \
#           or %{REMOTE_ADDR} =~ m/^192\.76\.162\.[0-9]+$/
#</Location>

#   SSL Engine Options:
#   Set various options for the SSL engine.
#   o FakeBasicAuth:
#     Translate the client X.509 into a Basic Authorisation.  This means that
#     the standard Auth/DBMAuth methods can be used for access control.  The
#     user name is the `one line' version of the client's X.509 certificate.
#     Note that no password is obtained from the user. Every entry in the user
#     file needs this password: `xxj31ZMTZzkVA'.
#   o ExportCertData:
#     This exports two additional environment variables: SSL_CLIENT_CERT and
#     SSL_SERVER_CERT. These contain the PEM-encoded certificates of the
#     server (always existing) and the client (only existing when client
#     authentication is used). This can be used to import the certificates
#     into CGI scripts.
#   o StdEnvVars:
#     This exports the standard SSL/TLS related `SSL_*' environment variables.
#     Per default this exportation is switched off for performance reasons,
#     because the extraction step is an expensive operation and is usually
#     useless for serving static content. So one usually enables the
#     exportation for CGI and SSI requests only.
#   o CompatEnvVars:
#     This exports obsolete environment variables for backward compatibility
#     to Apache-SSL 1.x, mod_ssl 2.0.x, Sioux 1.0 and Stronghold 2.x. Use this
#     to provide compatibility to existing CGI scripts.
#   o StrictRequire:
#     This denies access when "SSLRequireSSL" or "SSLRequire" applied even
#     under a "Satisfy any" situation, i.e. when it applies access is denied
#     and no other module can change it.
#   o OptRenegotiate:
#     This enables optimized SSL connection renegotiation handling when SSL
#     directives are used in per-directory context.
#SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth +ExportCertData +CompatEnvVars +StrictRequire

    SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Files>
#<Directory "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin">
#    SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
#</Directory>

#   SSL Protocol Adjustments:
#   The safe and default but still SSL/TLS standard compliant shutdown
#   approach is that mod_ssl sends the close notify alert but doesn't wait for
#   the close notify alert from client. When you need a different shutdown
#   approach you can use one of the following variables:
#   o ssl-unclean-shutdown:
#     This forces an unclean shutdown when the connection is closed, i.e. no
#     SSL close notify alert is send or allowed to received.  This violates
#     the SSL/TLS standard but is needed for some brain-dead browsers. Use
#     this when you receive I/O errors because of the standard approach where
#     mod_ssl sends the close notify alert.
#   o ssl-accurate-shutdown:
#     This forces an accurate shutdown when the connection is closed, i.e. a
#     SSL close notify alert is send and mod_ssl waits for the close notify
#     alert of the client. This is 100% SSL/TLS standard compliant, but in
#     practice often causes hanging connections with brain-dead browsers. Use
#     this only for browsers where you know that their SSL implementation
#     works correctly.
#   Notice: Most problems of broken clients are also related to the HTTP
#   keep-alive facility, so you usually additionally want to disable
#   keep-alive for those clients, too. Use variable "nokeepalive" for this.
#   Similarly, one has to force some clients to use HTTP/1.0 to workaround
#   their broken HTTP/1.1 implementation. Use variables "downgrade-1.0" and
#   "force-response-1.0" for this.
SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \
         nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
         downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0

#   Per-Server Logging:
#   The home of a custom SSL log file. Use this when you want a
#   compact non-error SSL logfile on a virtual host basis.
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/logs/ssl_request_log \

Hi,

I added your code, but had to get rid of <IfDefine SSL> because otherwise the vhost didn't appear. I was using the default keys that came in my ssl directory and, although the server listened on port 443 and redirected to the right place, it wasn't SSL. I then changed the code to use my (password protected) keys that I had generated.

My httpd.conf now contains (as well as the vhosts described above) the following:



AddType application/x-x509-ca-cert .crt
AddType application/x-pkcs7-crl .crl


<IfModule mod_ssl.c>

SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/var/SSLSessionCache shmcb:/var/cache/mod_ssl/scache(512000)
#SSLSessionCache dbm:/usr/local/apache/logs/ssl_scache

But when I start with this, I get the following errors.

Sorry to double post, but I have now updated using an unprotected Key.

Apache loads fine, and the vhosts all work. The only problem being that doesn't go anywhere (DNS error) and goes to the right page, just with no SSL encryption.

The ssl_request_log shows my request:
Code: 
[19/Jan/2005:12:41:43 +0000] MYIP - - "GET / HTTP/1.1" 52
and the ssl_engine_log shows it starting up:

and the ssl_error_log shows no problems

I suspect this means my problem lies in the configuration of my vhost, which is here.
