If you noticed an unexpected outage of my blog and all other sites on this web server, I apologize. This morning, I was greeted by a dead lighttpd web server and when restarting it, it decided to give me this error message instead:
2010-03-05 10:23:01: (network.c.529) SSL: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)
Luckily, a little bit of googling showed that this is a bug in lighttpd 1.4.26's SSL interface that can be fixed with this little workaround until a new version is released:
cd /tmp wget http://download.lighttpd.net/lighttpd/releases-1.4.x/lighttpd-1.4.26.tar.gz tar xzf lighttpd-1.4.26.tar.gz cd lighttpd-1.4.26 cd src rm network.c wget http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd/repository/revisions/2716/raw/branches/lighttpd-1.4.x/src/network.c cd .. ./configure && make install
As you can see, the server is happily back up and running. Thanks to sekuritatea for the fix.
