Hello,

I'd like to secure my admin tools running at subdomains with SSL certificate and was following instructions to create SAN self-signed certificate with 4096 key.

Afterwards, was following instructions in howto [www.hiawatha-webserver.org] but attempt to restart Hiawatha gives:

Error loading RSA private key from /ets/ssl/somefolder/certificate.pem

Examining certificate with:

openssl x509 -in certificate.pem -text -noout

does not show any problem.

Any hint?

I'd also like if you can provide some further instructions for using commercial SSL certificates like (cheap) Comodo, RapidSSL as well as free one from StartSSL?
Hiawatha version:
Operating System:

The file you specify via SSLcertFile should contain both private key and certificate. Looks like the private key is missing.

Well, the cert file looks like

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
...
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Will try to re-generate...

It was permissions problem.

Now it loads, but have another certificate-related problems...
