Help? Web service crashes whenever I check "enable SSL"

Question

Whenever I try to enable SSL for one of my virtual domains, Server admin reports
"A service has encountered an error"
and disables web service for that virtual domain.
Everything was working fine (ftp, webdav, websites, mail).
So my final step was to try to enable secure webdav via https.
So I
* bought a certificate (godaddy $30) for my domain EXAMPLE.COM (no www, since everything is hosted on one box, for email, webdav, ftp we just use "example.com"
* manually pasted my key into /etc/httpd/ssl.key/server.keyx
* manually pasted my cert into /etc/httpd/ssl.crt/server.crtx
* manually pasted the CA cert into /etc/httpd/ssl.crt/ca.crtx
* entered my pass phrase I used when I made the key
* used the log file default /var/log/httpd/sslenginelog
(when crashed the first time I thought the file not being there could be the problem, so I copied another file, and ensured the permissions were the same: owner root, group admin)
all that was fine. checked the enable SSL box, and clicked Save and that's when it reports the error and disables the virtual domain.
My server is 10.3.9.
The first time I used 10.4 admin. When it crashed the service I did a restart on the server, then on the server used the 10.3 admin. Same deal. (Only difference is on 10.4 admin it set my port to 443; on 10.3 it didn't)

Answer 1

I did get it working. But my recollection of what I did to get it working is fuzzy. I think what I noticed is that whatever I put into the various SSL key fields was not getting saved, so I tracked down the appropriate locations and edited them manually. Sorry I don't recall the specifics.
Another thing I do remember is that I was unable to CHANGE an existing "site" setting from port 80 to 443 -- I had to delete the entry, then re-create it from scratch with the SSL settings and PORT #.
Hope that helps.
