Title: Port 80/443 lost after Certificate installation
Post by: lnewlf on September 20, 2016, 04:00:27 PM

 8-)
As a Part-Time User of SME 9.1 i have decided to install a Certificate for my private Mailserver (Zarafa on SME 9.1) using StartSSL crt. files.
Sadly after reboot no port 80 or 443 comes up again, even if i reset to a normal (self-signed) Certificate. Anyone a hint where i could fix this time consuming Prob?
Port 110, 25 and so on up and running (993,995 also)
error.log shows "RSA Server certificate CommonName (CN) XXX does NOT match server name?!"

Any ideas? searching the Wiki and Forum does not lead to an end...  :-(

Please explain exactly what you did, and how did you reset to a normal certificate. httpd is not being started, because of a configuration issue. You should be able to have the root cause by running

Code: [Select]

httpd -t
in a shell (as root)

Hi, Daniel and Stefano.

Problem solved. Httpd -t showed bad syntax, and i forgot to remove the Password from key.
Sometime you didnt see the forest because of the trees... (as said in Germany).

Many Thanks and Blue Skies
