Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apache2
Enable SSL in the normal way; make a virtual host, etc., supply server certs/keys. I got this following these instructions for the SSL setup itself: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/forum/server/apache2/SSL but following these instructions to generate my SSL cert/key pair: http://www.eclectica.ca/howto/ssl-cert-howto.php Upon a client attempt to connect to the server using SSL, the browser reported an interrupted connection and in /var/log/apache2/error.log I got this: [Mon Nov 26 13:33:50 2007] [notice] child pid 16850 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) normal HTTP connections continued to work as before. This appears possibly to be related to this bug: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34846 which was laid at the door of a "bad patch" in that SuSE version, which may give some clue as to fixing it. It's also been reported on UbuntuForums without a solution (except the one I posted a few minutes ago, which I'll repeat in this report); but I couldn't find a filed bug relating to it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=381515 My current workaround for this bug is to insert a line in /etc/apache2 /mods-enabled/ssl.conf as follows: SSLVerifyClient none ... this was following a suggestion as to the nature of the problem given *somewhere*. (I'm sorry, I'm going back over the pages I googled to resolve this to see where it said the thing that caused me to try it, but I can't see it now.) This workaround does appear to work completely (unless you want client cert verification to work, I suppose!) Perhaps it should be the default? ** Affects: apache2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- apache2 ssl in default configuration causes SEGV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/165185 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
