I have a feeling that I'm missing something
elementary here. I have an install of apache 2.0.55 with mod_ssl
enabled on a HP-UX system in /opt/apache2. This one runs fine. I
recompiled another copy of apache (same version) into /opt/apache2a (for
testing purposes) to add mod_ldap support and that one worked as well.
Then I tried recreating apache2a in apache2 by doing a recompile using a
prefix of apache2 and then doing an install after backing everything up
and moving the old apache install out of the way. However, this one
DOESN'T work. If I launch it WITHOUT SSL turned on (i.e, no SSLEngine
on) directive, everything works great. But as soon as I turn on SSL in
a VirtualHost, then strange things happen. A client will connect to the
test port via SSL, the SSL negotiation appears to work just fine (tested
using openssl s_client), but when you attempt to do a GET, the request
is sent, but a reply never shows up. Nothing appears in the access_log,
and child processes begin to spawn with each request. I can pull up the
server-status url and everytime I hit refresh, one child process goes to
"W" and another one is spawned. Clicking repeatedly will continue this
process until there are a ton of processes, all stuck at "Waiting" with
0/0/0 under the Acc columntDo it enough, the server's load average
starts to climb.

I've checked and double checked every permission I can
possible find. The User and Group directives are both set to "webadmin"
which is the same in all configurations. The permissions of the
sub-directories in both directories match between the two. I have this
feeling that it's simple with the directory permissions and/or structure
but I just can't seem to locate it. Anyone have any ideas on what else
I might need to look at?
