Here are the details from the SUN-COBALT Knowledge base:

http://www.sun.com/service/suncobalt/knowledge/

And enter "020102-000000" as search text (without the quotes) and change
"Search by" to "Ref. #".

It should lead you to:

Ref. #020102-000000: Getting CGI forms to work with SSL sites

I am getting a page cannot be displayed error when submitting a form. If I
click back and resubmit the form it works fine. How can I get around this
problem?

Change the following block of code in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf under the
Section "# Hardcoded, issues with mod_perl and cobalt modules." from:

$PerlConfig .= "Listen $ip:443\n";
$PerlConfig .= "\n";
$PerlConfig .= "SSLengine on\n";
$PerlConfig .= "SSLCertificateFile /home/sites/$group/certs/certificate\n";
$PerlConfig .= "SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/sites/$group/certs/key\n";
$PerlConfig .= join('', @ssl_conf);

to:

$PerlConfig .= "Listen $ip:443\n";
$PerlConfig .= "\n";
$PerlConfig .= "SetEnvIf User-Agent \".*MSIE.*\" \\n";
$PerlConfig .= "nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \\n";
$PerlConfig .= "downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0\n";
$PerlConfig .= "SSLengine on\n";
$PerlConfig .= "SSLCertificateFile /home/sites/$group/certs/certificate\n";
$PerlConfig .= "SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/sites/$group/certs/key\n";
$PerlConfig .= join('', @ssl_conf);

Restart Apache by typing /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
