Summary
This article helps resolve the error by checking to see if you have a matching keypair.
When you try to run Apache, you may receive one of the following error messages in the log file:
Unable to configure RSA server private key
mod_ssl: Init: (www.domain.com:443) Unable to configure RSA server private key (OpenSSL library error follows)
OpenSSL: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch
Error: "Unable to configure RSA server private key"
Eror: "mod_ssl: Init: (www.domain.com:443) Unable to configure RSA server private key (OpenSSL library error follows)"
Error: "OpenSSL: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch"
Cause:
This problem may occur if the private key and certificate do not match.
Here is the Solution:
To resolve this problem, specify the correct private key for the certificate. Compare the modulus of certificate against the modulus of the private key to see if they match. Follow these steps:
View the certificate modulus using the following command:
openssl x509 -noout -text -in certfile -modulus
View the key using the following command:
openssl rsa -noout -text -in keyfile -modulus
Verify the following:
Verify that the certificate and private key file is saved in Notepad and that it has no trailing spaces.
The "modulus" and "public exponent" portions in the key and the certificate must match exactly.
Make sure you aren't using the default server.key file.
You should also check the httpd.conf file to make sure that the directives are pointing to the correct private key and certificate.
If they do not match, you will have to reissue your certificate.
