Server should be SSL-aware but has no certificate configured [Hint: SSLCertificateFile] ((null):0)

The above error appears with recent versions of apache (>2.2.13) despite the fact that apache has SSLCertificateFile and other SSL configuration correctly set. Not sure what is the problem, but the solution is quite simple but difficult to find, specially most people with that error have wrong ssl configuration, but if you are sure it is not your case and you’ve correctly configured SSL options for apache you might try to replace
Listen 443 with Listen 443 http

    I hadcthe same thing happen, and this was the fix. But it shouldn’t be the fix. If anything it should be https … but that doesn’t work either. And anything after listen 443 should be optional. I’m using Scientific Linux 6. I also don’t understand why this isn’t all over the web. wouldn’t this be a very common problem? We ave a wildcard cert if that makes any diff.
