Thanks, that worked. Will webmin now start on boot? I commented that line out. Do I need to uncomment it back out after I make the ssl certificate? Also, the miniserv.pem is in the /usr/libexec/webmin directory. I haven't made a ssl cert yet. Its on the list. Again, thanks!! -----Original Message----- From: Jamie Cameron <jca...@we...> Sent: Monday, December 27, 2021 8:35 PM To: Webmin users list <web...@li...> Subject: Re: [webmin-l] Webmin won't start Looks like your SSL cert file is missing. The work-around would be to edit /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf and remove the ssl=1 line, then re-try restarting Webmin. - Jamie On 27/Dec/2021 12:45 TE Dukes <td...@pa...> wrote .. > Tried that also: > > [root@ts130 ~]# /etc/webmin/start > Starting Webmin server in /usr/libexec/webmin Failed to open SSL cert > /etc/webmin/miniserv.pem Failed to create default SSL context at > /usr/libexec/webmin/miniserv.pl line 284. > [root@ts130 ~]# > > I haven't gotten far enough to create the SSL cert.
