LinuxQuestions.org - Cant Get SSL working on Ubuntu Server 8.04

If http://cbcperformance.net/ is indeed your site (some oscommerce stuff), I get the following error when accessing it over https:

Code:

cbcperformance.net has sent an incorrect or unexpected message. Error code -12263

I tested this on my own http site (using https instead of http) and get the same error.

It basically means that you haven't setup ssl for the sites. You can check the apache error logs and you will probably see something like

Code:

[Mon Jul 14 07:18:10 2008] [error] [client 172.18.32.2] Invalid method in request \x16\x03\x01

I don't use Ubuntu for servers so can not really advise. On Slackware 12, there are two config files for virtual hosts, one for normal sites (http) and one for secure sites (https).

Your https site (virtualhost) should look like this:

Code:



Listen 443



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

AddType application/x-pkcs7-crl    .crl



SSLPassPhraseDialog  builtin

The italic part is generic and the bold section is per site. You need to have certificates in place for both sites and both sites need to have their own ip-address.

PS I've visited both sites and they look the same which might be another problem that you have.
