      Hello All,
      I have Mod_Security working fine with HTTP(80)
      But i need use mod_security with HTTPS(443) with Godaddy SSL.
      I have the 3 files in /usr/local/apache22/etc/ (I have created this path):
      Certificate File: www.mydomain.com.crt
      Certificate Key File: www.mydomain.com.pem
      Certificate Chain File: gb_bundle.crt

      i setup new SiteProxy with these data:
      Site Name: MyDomain SSL
      Webmaster: email@domain.com
      IP Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
      Protocol: HTTPS
      Port: 443
      Certificate File: www.mydomain.com.crt
      Certificate Key File: www.mydomain.com.pem
      Certificate Chain File: gb_bundle.crt
      Preserver Proxy Hostname: Uncheck
      Primary Site Name: www.mydomain.com
      WebServer backend URL: 192.168.0.1

      But its not work. What i need do?
      *** If i add a Port Forward (NAT) to internal server on https port, its working fine. But i really need certificate.

      Thanks!

        cosmo,

        did you tried Certificate File and Certificate Key File with full path instead of just .crt and .pem filename?

          Hello,

          I got it working. It seems it's not possible to do reverse proxy on 443 and 80. I had to remove port 80 to get it working.

          On proxy server settings is set port to bind to 443.
          I removedĀ  the port 80 site proxy (with a config for port 80 and 443 it didn't work).

          You have to enter the file name only for certificate files (with full path it will search for /usr/local/apache22/etc/usr/local/apache22/etc/cert_file according to the log)
          So i think there is a typo in the path they given under the option. You have to put your certificate files in /usr/local/etc/apache22/ instead of /usr/local/apache22/etc/

          When you add full path name apache will not run and there is no proxy at all.

          You must not add a port forward in the NAT

          Greetings.
