[hobbit] Non random SSL problem

[Paul Bury]

Thanks for you quick response. Your suggestion fixed the problem with
running configure but I still get the same error message for the https site
the http url listed works fine and the response time for the https url is
being graphed.

Error shown in hobbit:
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Date: Tue, 17 May 2005 00:11:30 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.14 OpenSSL/0.9.7b
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

Seconds:     0.03

Config line from the bb-hosts file:
10.30.11.103 speedy # ftp http://the.website.url
https://the.secure.website.url

Extract from the log file on the https server:
[17/May/2005 09:46:23 20114] [error] SSL handshake failed: HTTP spoken on
HTTPS port; trying to send HTML error page (OpenSSL library error follows)
[17/May/2005 09:46:23 20114] [error] OpenSSL: error:1407609C:SSL
routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:http request [Hint: speaking HTTP to HTTPS
port!?]

Any suggestions ?

Regards

Paul

I think that's a bug in the configuration-script, and I am surprised it
hasn't been reported before. Could you try changing the
hobbit-4.0.3rc2/build/Makefile.test-ssl file - the line that reads

    @$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(OSSLLIB) -o test-ssl test-ssl.o -lssl -lcrypto

should be

    @$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(OSSLLIB) -o test-ssl test-ssl.o -lssl -lcrypto
$(NETLIBS)


(i.e. just add "$(NETLIBS)" to the line. That should make the
SSL-configuration work, and then your https URL's should also be tested
correctly.

Henrik
