Certificate not Working - crashing server

Hi All,

Thought I would start a seperate thread on this:

Just upgraded from panther Server to Tiger Server and one site that uses a web Certificate we got from Thawte does not work.

I made sure that the site setting from Server Admin were the same as before for the certificate - specifically the following:

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
SSLEngine On
SSLLog "/var/log/httpd/sslenginelog"
SSLCertificateChainFile "/etc/httpd/ssl.crt/ca.crtX"
SSLCertificateFile "/etc/httpd/ssl.crt/cert.crt"
SSLCertificateKeyFile "/etc/httpd/ssl.key/server.keyX"
SSLCipherSuite "ALL:!ADH:RC4RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:!SSLv2:+EXP:eNULL"
</IfModule>


The server will not start when using SSL and the Certificate. It will work if I use the Default Certificate but that causes issues when serving - obviously.

Trying to start apache in the terminal ( sudo apachectl start ) procecsses all sites then yields this:

/usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

When I check the log file it shows this - not too sure which fil to look at though :-\ :

or this:

[Wed Jun 7 21:28:26 2006] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down

doing apachecctl configtest in the terminal yields this:

Processing config directory: /etc/httpd/sites/*.conf
Processing config file: /etc/httpd/sites/0000any_80.conf
Syntax error on line 13 of /etc/httpd/sites/0000any_80.conf:
SSLCertificateChainFile: file '/etc/httpd/ssl.crt/ca.crt1any80default' not exists or empty


I don't kno wwhat else to try or what else to check. Please help... any and all help appreciated.

TIA - Vijay
