Hi, The resolution to #231726 is disabling ssl-cert in postinst,
# Make self-signed certificate #if [ ! -f /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem ] #then # /usr/sbin/make-ssl-cert /usr/share/ssl-cert/ssleay.cnf /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem #fi As a consequence, this #168109 bug is then reopened. I would like to suggest the solution by reinsert postinst code like this, # Make self-signed certificate if [ ! -f /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem ] then /usr/sbin/make-ssl-cert /usr/share/ssl-cert/ssleay.cnf /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem || (rm -f /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem; false) fi But it should be better to split mod_ssl and the action of generating cert/key in a package named "libapache2-mod-ssl". PS. How can I retitle the bug with long subject? retitle 168109 apache2-common: mods-available/ssl.conf should enable ssl, and specify/generate a default cert/key ^^^ The line is too long and gmail does wrap it.
