[erlang-questions] Node Crash for inets config 'SocketType ssl'

[Prakash Parmar]

Hello Ingela,


Thanks for your response ?


I'm using rebar3 for release. I have mentioned ssl application in config file prior to inets application(though sequence doesn't matter) and as per my understanding rebar3 will take care of start sequence and I don't think so there is an option to define application start sequence explicitly. Am I right ?


Let me know if there is any way to make sure to start ssl application before inets application.


/Cheers,

Prakash Parmar

Hi!

Did you start the ssl application?

Hello,


I have a web-server based on inets otp application and running completely fine over 'http' in order to support 'https' I have changed inets configuration

as per the sample configuration located at Erlang's repo [1].


Here are the config file snippet I had changed/added,

...
SocketType ssl
SSLCertificateFile      {{install_dir}}/config/www/certs/server.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile   {{install_dir}}/config/www/certs/server.pem
SSLVerifyClient 0
...


I have also generated certificate files[2] and kept it in above mentioned path.

unfortunately node is crashing at startup and following logs is printed on shell.

Does anyone know what might be the problem ?

I have looked into 'http_transport' module's code and it seems that start/1 function[3] is not accepting 'ssl' atom as an arity,
Arity for this function is like {ssl, <Certificate_file_path>}. Any idea on this ? Did I missed anything ?

/ cheers,
