I saw the Intro video and the very first thing I noticed is that webmin should run on https://. My setup does not... I tested running my cp (webmin /virtualmin) but Im getting this error...
Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:10000. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. (Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)
I'm alarmed... How do I setup webmin to run on https:// ?
Thanks!.
Re:Webmin not running on https://
you can set it in webmin configuration under SSL encryption however you must have the SSLeay Perl module installed<br><br>Post edited by: ronald, at: 2008/07/05 12:24
Re:Webmin not running on https://
You haven't told us your OS/version, or how you installed Webmin and Virtualmin.
If you are using a supported OS, the automated install script insures you get all of the right packages and a known working configuration--very quickly and very easily.
Re:Webmin not running on https://
Sweet! Got it working now. I'm running on CentOS 5.2. Thanks guys...
Re:Webmin not running on https://
Hello,
I am running into the same issue. The platform is solaris 10-x86. The version initially installed, 1.1, worked. I downloaded the 1.4 package, added the module/package from the webmin module option, and began getting this same error noted.
Did a pkgrm of 1.1 and 1.4, pkgadd again of 1.4, and same error.
Secure Connection Failed

Any ideas where to look or how to resolve?

Re:Webmin not running on https://
Hi Tim,
I've usually seen that error when either the SSL certificate, key, or ca directives were pointing to the wrong file.
Can you verify all the SSL related files you have, and verify that where Virtualmin is looking for your cert, key, and ca are all using the correct files? -Eric
Re:Webmin not running on https://
Eric,
Where would I look for the SSL related files? On the solaris box or the client machine?
I installed webmin on two diferrent hosts, debian 5.0.1 and solaris 10. The debian host works as advertised. The solaris host worked with 1.1, installed during base installation of solaris. When I went to webmin 1.4 on the solaris host, that is when it stopped working. The debian host is working.
Any more thoughts or direction?
Cheers, Tim
Re:Webmin not running on https://
What, what all have you done or attempted to do, SSL-wise?
Had you at some point attempted to install a commercial certificate?
Or is this a default Virtualmin install?
And the problem you're running into is when you access Webmin? -Eric
Re:Webmin not running on https://
Nothing has been done at all related to SSL.
Yes, the issue is with webmin. Going to the URL generates the error.
Cheers, Tim
Re:Webmin not running on https://
Ahh, interesting. So that certainly isn't desirable :-)
If you log in over SSH and type these commands, what output do you get:
grep ssl /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
grep keyfile= /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
grep certfile= /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
grep extracas= /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
Some of the above may not produce output, that's okay, just mention when that's the case :-)
Thanks! -Eric
Re:Webmin not running on https://
These errors indicate to me a mismatch in the OpenSSL version and the Perl Net::SSLeay library bindings. I would suggest reinstalling Net::SSLeay, and see if that corrects it (you may have to rebuild from CPAN, if there isn't an up to date package of Net::SSLeay in whatever pkg repo y ou're using).
ssl error
For recent install, a reinstall has fixed this error on a couple of servers for me.
