hi,

I have made a fresh plesk 12 install on a cent os 7. all is working fine except the SSL 443 port. on startup the following error message is thrown:

hi,

I checked your article and run the commands - anyway on startup the nginx fails - if I login into the server and run systemctl status nginx the error in my post is shown - if I restart nginx by hand all is fine? but after reboot the nginx fails and the whole apache is not responding on 80 an 443? how could this be solved?
