Hi,

i have intalled the Apache Module for Lets Encrypt, but if starting my Apache i get the error:

Code:
AH00016: Configuration Failed
[Mon Sep 04 01:55:35.014620 2017] [md:error] [pid 1820:tid 400] (22)Invalid argument: md www.example.eu with invalid domain name: null
[Mon Sep 04 01:55:35.015620 2017] [md:error] [pid 1820:tid 400] (22)Invalid argument: AH10073: synching 1 mds to registry
AH00016: Configuration Failed


The Parameter on httpd.conf for mod_md:


Code:

ServerAdmin mailto:abc@example.eu
MDCertificateAgreement https://letsencrypt.org/documents/LE-SA-v1.1.1-August-1-2016.pdf
MDPrivateKeys RSA 4096
MDStoreDir "X:/ABC/LetsEncrypt"
MDRenewWindow 12d


and for the domain:

ManagedDomain: www.example.eu

Code:
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName www.example.eu
ServerAlias example.eu
DocumentRoot "X:/ABC"
SSLEngine on
Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=69072000; preload"
H2Direct on
</VirtualHost>


Have anyone a idea what is the reason for this one?

Yeah, the config line with 'ManagedDomain' would be interesting.

Thanks! However that runs here on our test servers without errors.

How does your store look? See <server-root/md/domains. There should be a directory 'www.example.eu'. What does it contain? How about <server-root/md/staging?

It would be interesting to learn what the behaviour is if you move the store aside and restart. Will it run into the same problem again? Then it would be interesting to learn what the 'md.json' files look like.

This directory is subsisted on both variants, but empty.

For Testing, i have created the following one:

Code:

ManagedDomain test.example.eu

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.example.eu
ServerAlias wch.example.eu
DocumentRoot "X:/ABC/"
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName test.example.eu
ServerAlias wch.example.eu
DocumentRoot "X:/ABC/"
SSLEngine on
Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=63072000; preload"
H2Direct on
</VirtualHost>


I have the problem with both methods of (with an without MDStore)

On the storedir give it two files a htpd.json and a md.json.

The content of the httpd.json:

Code:

{
  "proto": {
    "http": true,
    "https": true
  }
}


and of the md.json:

Code:
{
  "version": "0.8.1-git",
  "store": {
    "version": 2.0
  },
  "key": "Bvr9RSnj9hIUS3tiweaxd7Im4KnBMF6ztZXe1-Jl"
}


(Its a randomkey from a generator of me. Is not the original key of the tool which is created)

The modules where is loading from Apache:

Code:

LoadModule md_module modules/mod_md.so
LoadModule watchdog_module modules/mod_watchdog.so
LoadModule access_compat_module modules/mod_access_compat.so

This directory *has* to exist. In it there is a sub-directory for each of your ManagedDomains. Not a Windows expert. but doe the access controls and service user etc. allow Apache to create things here?

The Apacheserver create on the start:


Code:
<server-root/md/>


with the subdirectories and files:

- accounts
- challenge
- staging
- httpd.json
- md_store.json

but not a directory "domains" and each subdirectory on this one. Apache is be allowed to create it.

I create it manually on /md/. Same Failure.

Try to remove the /md folder and use v0.8.2

and remove the lines in httpd.conf:

MDPrivateKeys RSA 4096
MDStoreDir "X:/ABC/LetsEncrypt"
MDRenewWindow 12d

and have:

ManagedDomain example.eu www.example.eu

I have delete:
Code:

MDPrivateKeys RSA 4096
MDStoreDir "X:/ABC/LetsEncrypt"
MDRenewWindow 12d


and set:

Code:
ManagedDomain example.eu www.example.eu


Same One:

Code:
[md:error] [pid 6632:tid 400] (22)Invalid argument: md example.eu with invalid domain name: null
[md:error] [pid 6632:tid 400] (22)Invalid argument: AH10073: synching 1 mds to registry


I will be create a vm with a clear Apache and only the module mod_md and post the results here. I need a little bit time for this one Smile.

Sure you have a vhost with:

<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName www.example.eu
ServerAlias example.eu

ps.
I suppose that you replace example.eu with a domain you own and is reachable by your apache.

Hi Steffen. I have found the problem!

I have for each Domain a Config File. For Domains, which is not on my server used this one:

Code:
<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerName null
     ServerAlias *
     Redirect 404 /
</VirtualHost>


If i disable this one, the module is starting. It is a vhost for blocking domainspamming.

And now. i have the following problem
Crying or Very sad

I do not understand your:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName null
ServerAlias *
Redirect 404 /
</VirtualHost>

Remove that ones, see no need for that.


I still see example.eu , replace it with your own domain.

Be sure you have only:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.yourdomain.eu
ServerAlias yourdomain.eu
...
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName www.yourdomain.eu
ServerAlias yourdomain.eu
SSLEngine on
...
</VirtualHost>

and in httpd.conf global:

ServerName www.yourdomain.eu
ManagedDomain yourdomain.eu www.yourdomain.eu


Be sure that yourdomain.eu is reachable from the internet !!

Same one. How is the module working on start?

At last time,i used lets encrypt for windows simple.
This tool create on the directory from each domain-directory a directory with the name ".well-known" and the subdir "acme-challenge". In this directory are files with the name "skjfpxykjnmvposjkfßsdfj" to validating the domain with Lets Encrypt.

How validated the module the domains? Is it this redirecting to his directory /md/ ? I has not found on the wiki to this.

Which modules i needed to this?

Hi there,

i would post an update about this problem.

I have updated the system to Apache 2.4.28 and mod_md 0.9.9.
With this version is all ok. The certificate was created and and Apache loaded it. The problem is solved.

With this found the following bug. If the have other certificates for domains, i must set the directive "SSLCertificateChainFile" to "SSLCACertificateFile". If they not, Apache is not starting. I think is a change on the apacheversion.

SSLCertificateChainFile became obsolete with version 2.4.8, when SSLCertificateFile was extended to also load intermediate CA certificates from the server certificate file.

See https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslcertificatechainfile
