Apache Server not responding to 127.0.0.1

Hello,

I am new to Linux and have recently installed Suse 10. When I access the Apache Server using http:/127.0.0.1 then it works fine. However, when I try to use https:/127.0.0.1, it returns an error message. I have enabled the ssl support and have made the changes as suggested in /usr/share/doc/packages/apache2/README.QUICKSTART.SSL. Further, the Apache server starts fine with /usr/sbin/rcapache2 startssl. Then how comes the browser cannot establish an ssl connection. The error message I get is 'The connection to the local server has terminated unexpectedly. Some data may have been transferred'

Regards.

PS: I have used single / insteaf of // becuase the forum does not let me put two of them

There's an Apache SSL howto here at http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/...ache_SSL_Howto which may help. If not, can you post any entries in your access and error logs from starting Apache?

Thanks. With the help of this howto and some other fine tuning its now working.

Regards.
