My apache2 vhost ssl config was incorrect. This error came from Mozilla Firefox when I tried to hit my ssl site.
I looked in all my apache log files until I found the actual error (I had changed the <VirtualHost> from _default_ to my fqdn). When I fixed this error, everything worked fine.

Thanks a lot! I was going crazy about this error
thank more!!!!!
thanks a lot, also congrats on the google positioning, you page shows on top in google, which makes it very useful.
I ran in to this as well and it turned out I had a non ssl site listening on port 443. For example: http://mysite:443/ That worked, not there's no https there. I just fixed my configs so no non-ssl sites were listening on port 443 and only ssl sites were listening on port 443.
thanks for ur help....it really gave me a sigh of relief...thanks alot Regards Abdulrehman
Wow, really appreciate your help. Finally got my ssl svn server up!
Hi, thank you for your answer. How can I manage if I have the same site in SSL and non SSL modes? I mean I have only one folder in SSL the rest of the site is nonSSL. Thanks, Kostya.
i'm going to test this now... thanks!

ure blog is teh suck
It looks like if you add your fqdn to your hosts file and leave it in it will work as well <VirtualHost fqdn:443>
Thank you, work for me in http://www.dasumo.com/blog/
one of the worst solution where can we find <VirtualHost > in the hosting site
Ive rent web server+domain,i've configured ssl step by step via these cpanel including upload own certificate. I entered : http://example.com/ ->it works https://example.com/ ->it NOT worked http://example.com:443/ ->it CPANEL output, it says "Great Success ! Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server",yeaaaaaahh i'm great confused. Yeah it really worked if in localhost (my PC)-> why? because we can change 'httpd.conf'. But in webserver ... WE CAN'T... step bystep ive do with cpanel: ssl/tls manager, generate key -> DONE ... it not work. Any idea??? BigThanks for this.
I had an <IfDefine SSL> directive in vhost config not working and therefor no SSL running for this vhost at :443. Adding -D SSL to the init.d/apache start script set the environment and <IfDefine SSL> work as therefor SSL without the error.

VirtualHost *:80 to... VirtualHost *:443 then restart/reload apache (khusyal singh from india)
