RE: [cobalt-users] RaQ4r -SSL not running - leading to no /admin redirect?



Hey
It looks like you might have deleted the mod.rewrites within the
httpd.conf
look at a working one... and you'll probably find the code is missing
from the site you are trying to get to

Subject: [cobalt-users] RaQ4r -SSL not running - leading to no /admin
redirect?


I have two issues with a RaQ4R that I'm sure are related: I cannot
access
the admin GUI, nor can I access a secure site that I have set up on the
machine. (Actually, I can access the secure site as long as I don't try
https - http works just fine.)

History: all patches are up to date. Machine was rock-solid until now.
Only
change has been turning on SSL a couple months ago. Thawte certificate
successfully installed 1 month ago, worked just fine for several days -
likely a few weeks. (Site is not currently live, so I'm not positive
when
it stopped working - the secure portion has not been accessed daily.)

I cannot currently access the admin GUI of the server by utilizing the
standard http://domain/admin URL; I get a "File Not Found: The requested
URL was not found on this server" error. Pointing my web browser to
http://domain:81/.cobalt/sysManage/index.html, I can access the admin
GUI
just fine.

If I'm correct, the server tries (automatically) to use https to access
the
admin pages once a secure cert is installed, correct? That could be part
of
the above issue. The rest of it is the fact that SSL appears not start.

>From an SSH session:

[root /]#  /etc/rc.d/init.d/admserv status
ahttpd dead but subsys locked

[root /]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/admserv start
Starting admin web server:
Invalid certificates for main site -- Not starting SSL
/usr/sbin/httpd.admsrv

killall doesn't help; neither does a server reboot. As soon as the start
command is issued, I can do a "status" again, and it says admserv is
dead.

Additionally, when I look through /var/log/httpd/adm_error, I see the
"Invalid certificates for main site -- Not starting SSL" messages from
as
far back as 2 years ago, then apparently stopping after a couple of
patches
were installed a year ago....so  I don't know how much that error helps.
It
is resident in the last day or so, as I've been fighting with the
machine.

The notice in adm_error when I issue the "admserv start" command:
Apache/1.3.20 Sun Cobalt (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.4 OpenSSL/0.9.6b
mod_auth_pam_external/0.1 mod_perl/1.25 configured -- resuming normal
operations

The only other error I saw:
[Mon Dec  2 10:40:54 2002] [crit] (98)Address already in use: make_sock:
could not bind to port 444
(I assume this is the admin webserver trying to set up a listener for
the
admin GUI interface, and it is failing because SSL isn't
running....which
is also why I can't access the GUI via the /admin URL ).

(Additional troubleshooting stuff included at end of this message **)

A week ago, the machine stopped serving up pages entirely (admserv and
httpd were dead); ftp, ssh etc. connections worked just fine. I ended up
rebooting it, and everything appeared to be OK. (I didn't have the
foresight to check the SSL site at that time - it's entirely possible
SSL
did NOT come back up.)

Rebooting the server has no effect at this time; httpd comes up just
fine,
but the admserv and the SSL portions don't.

There is only one certificate installed on this machine, on a virtual
site.
The IP for that virtual site is not shared with any other sites on the
machine.

Any thoughts on where I should look next? I searched for solutions as
best
I could, but didn't find anything other than unchecking/rechecking the
"Enable SSL" box on the site itself, or perhaps hitting "Save Changes"
on
the certificate admin page. (If I do either of these, will I hose my
certificate? I DO have the cert backed up....)

Thanks in advance!!
