Plesk 10.2 Apache2 binding on single IP

[Arktik]

Hi @all,

I have a litte problem with the Plesk 10.2 and Apache2 which does not start because my Second IP Adresse use the Port 443 for the OpenVPN Server.

So I have also try to set the Listen Option in the ports.conf and apache2.conf, but the Apache2 don'T interesst the Listen Option. The Server faild to start with the following Error Message:

Apache cannot be started with the error "(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not
bind to address [::]:443 no listening sockets available, shutting down.

I don't know how the Apache2 is configured by the Plesk and the dokumentation about Plesk and Apache2 arr not so that I can see any thing to close the problem.

If I commend out the port 443 in the port.conf the Apache Server starts on Port 80 and listen on any IP on the Server. But I have set in the port.conf the Listen Option to 10.51.8.0:80 (the IP is an example)

How can I solve these problem with the Listen Option and the two IP-Addresses?

Sam issue on binding Apache2 on single IP

I have the same issue. My server has two IPs and I would like to bind apache to a single IP. The reason is exactly the same. I would like to run OpenVPN on the second one. So, before taking any actions with OpenVPN I tried to get the second IP free. What I did is to change /etc/apache2/ports.conf:
Listen 80 -> Listen aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:80

This worked quite well. I cheked via
"netstat -tulpn | grep apache2"
that apache is now listening to aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:80

But, I got an error message when I tried this for port 443:
Listen 443 -> Listen aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:443
In this case I can't restart apache2.

/var/log/apache2/error.log tells me:
[Sun Jul 17 20:34:16 2011] [error] Server should be SSL-aware but has no certifi
cate configured [Hint: SSLCertificateFile] ((null):0)

Any idea how is this releated to the Listen statement and how to solve this?
