I think what I was suggesting (not too sure about this, but I think
this is where I was going) was that apache was *already* serving up
https content before you even started installing apache-ssl -
certainly something was using port 443 (since apache-ssl couldn't
access it). The only thing which seems likely is apache. Now that
you have re-installed apache-ssl (which I think is very keen when you
had a working system) I would be interested in the results of the lsof
command I suggested earlier. What lsof does is tells you what process
owns a file (or in this case a port). If
# lsof | grep https
reports something like
apache-ss 440 root IPv4 220292 *:https (LISTEN)
then that means that apache-ssl now 'owns' the https port. So try
accessing some https content: point your browser at
https://localhost/ and see what happens.
I feel a bit bad about pointing this out when you had a working
system, as it seems to have made you keen and *uninstalled a working
system* (something you wouldn't catch me doing). Sorry.
Tom
