Checking in mod_admserv/mod_admserv.c; /cvs/dirsec/mod_admserv/mod_admserv.c,v <-- mod_admserv.c new revision: 1.34; previous revision: 1.33 done Reviewed by: nkinder (Thanks!) Fix Description: Admin Server must make sure to do the NSS initialization after mod_nss has done so. NSS 3.12 (introduced in Fedora 9) requires that processes must perform NSS initialization after calling fork() in each child process. Apache provides a hook to do this. I mostly just copied the init code from mod_nss, so that the init is done the same way that mod_nss does it. Without this patch, I get strange errors when starting the Admin Server with SSL enabled, such as "Password for internal slot is incorrect". With the patch, everything works fine. Platforms tested: Fedora 9 Flag Day: no Doc impact: no Is this bug valid for RH DS? Yes, because we use NSS 3.12 on all platforms now. okay - what kind of "strange errors" should I looke for if the Admin Server is started with SSL setup? :-) If admin server starts up and works with SSL enabled, then all is well. okay - I have already done this with RHEL 4 today verifying bug 465822 - Verified. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
