My ssl config arent working now. I just move a site from one host (I moved the certs files.

When I try access I have this error. (Chrome and Firefox say to me that SSL protocol is invalid)

Solved: Finally I forgottednto enable the site :( Sorry and thanks for the help with the SSL config.

I see this in my apache log (I think that is when I enter usin my http route)

[09/Apr/2016:16:54:05 +0000] "GET /homepage/ HTTP/1.1" 302 560 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.110 Safari/537.36"

Here my SSL virtualhost file in sites-enable (I replaced name site to my-site):

Edited after the responses: - Commented SSLCertificateChainFile line.

  • ErrorLog from ssl virtualhost changed to /home/my-site/logs/my-site.com-error-ssl.log

  • LogLevel setted to debug

  • CustomLog from ssl virtualhost changed to /home/my-site/logs/my-site.com.com-access-ssl.log combined

The new logs files are missing, I really can't see any ssl error. I tested too that ssl module is enabled

Testing normal and private session in Chrome results in the same Private session accessing the site

you will see more in your logs with debug level warnings

LogLevel debug

you are defining the CA certificate twice here:

 SSLCertificateChainFile /home/my-site/www/my-site.com/current/ssl/sf_bundle_my-site.com.crt
 SSLCACertificateFile  /home/my-site/www/my-site.com/current/ssl/sf_bundle_my-site.com.crt

a Chained certificate file can contain, the root certificate issuer, intermediate trusted issuers and your certificate. the CA certificate should be enough here since your are referring to your own certificate individually.

try commenting out the SSLCertificateChainFile line.

and also put your https url into an online checker for better error reports

  • I can't use the online checker because I have to work in the "cloned" new host site using my hosts custom config Apr 9, 2016 at 20:08
  • start a private browsing session to see if you have the same error - it may be you cache
