Hi,

Excuse me for taking so long to reply to your bug report. Actually,
Cherokee works almost-out-of-the-box with SSL support - The "almost"
bit is the important one :)

First of all, having the SSL configuration section in mods-available
does not mean Cherokee is actually parsing it - We ship it in that
directory so you can easily activate them. To tell Cherokee to
actually _use_ SSL, you have to link it to the mods-enabled directory:

# ln -s ../mods-available/ssl /etc/cherokee/mods-enabled

After this, you have to set up the certificate for your server in
/etc/cherokee/ssl/cherokee.pem - If you don't already have a
certificate, you can create and self-sign it by using:

# openssl req -config /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf -new -x509 -nodes -out 
/etc/cherokee/ssl/cherokee.pem -keyout /etc/cherokee/ssl/cherokee.pem

That should do the trick. Start Cherokee again, and it will be
listening for SSL connections.

I am leaving this bug open, to remind use we need to document this. 

Greetings,
