Apache 2 SSL input read failed

Posted on January 31, 2014

Hello everyone,

I have configured in my Debian 7 droplet the Apache 2 web server with a SSL enabled virtual host. The host seems to serve the content properly (it’s a small sample HTML) but I keep getting these errors in error-ssl.log:

[info] [client 37.6.218.135] Connection to child 8 established (server <DNSHOSTNAME>:443) [info] Seeding PRNG with 656 bytes of entropy [info] Initial (No.1) HTTPS request received for child 8 (server <DNSHOSTNAME>:443) [info] [client 37.6.218.135] (70007)The timeout specified has expired: SSL input filter read failed. [info] [client 37.6.218.135] Connection closed to child 8 with standard shutdown (server <DNSHOSTNAME>:443)

Anyone knows how is “The timeout specified has expired: SSL input filter read failed.” message caused? I have been searching all over the place for this, and it seems that people have a totally different configuration than mine. Any ideas?
