I applied the latest updates this morning to several Debian 12 systems which included to Debian, Webmin and Virtualmin. I rebooted each as there was an updated Linux image.
Shortly after, I moved a Virtualmin site backup from one box to another using:
Virtualmin > Backup & Restore > Restore Virtual Servers
These usually happen without any issues. However, after the restore, I was presented with this Apache configuration error on the dashboard:
Warning!
The Apache configuration on your system has errors! This will prevent any new domains from being fully added by Virtualmin until the errors are fixed.
AH00526: Syntax error on line 78 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/anydomain.com.conf:
SSLCACertificateFile: file ‘/etc/ssl/virtualmin/17558032612771173/ssl.ca’ does not exist or is empty
Action ‘configtest’ failed.
The Apache error log may have more information.
I tried the restore onto a second box to see if it was unique to one but it happened identically on two separate boxes that had been updated.
I then ran:
Virtualmin > System Settings > Re-Check Configuration
and it continued to display the error.
I then changed the DNS and waited about a half hour after changing it and was able to generate a new certificate. I then re-ran:
Virtualmin > System Settings > Re-Check Configuration
and it appeared to clear the error.
Normally, when moving a site between servers I use my workstation’s hosts file to point the workstation at the new DNS location in order to test the site before committing the DNS to the new location. There was never an issue like this displayed before today. I noted that the SSL certificate did not indicate it needed redoing in the Virtualmin SSL interface before I redid the SSL.
Has anyone else experienced this?
