I recently setup mod_ssl and confirmed the service is running and when i connect to it asks me if i want to download the certificate and i agree(it even shows me on my browser I'm in a secure area) but when the web page loads I get.....
Forbidden

I'm not an expert on this subject. But this is my guess:
mod_ssl is working fine and the 403 error is occuring because of your web server configuration. Try placing a file (such as index.html) in the root directory of your webserver (/var/www is the most common path I've seen), then pointing your web browser to it specifically, like so:
https://yourservername/index.html
Be sure to include the HTTPS not HTTP to test your mod_ssl.
Hope this helps! |

on gentoo its /home/httpd/htdocs/
an other thing make sure the DocumentRoot line is pointing to a dir where your web server have read acces in that file: ssl.default-vhost.conf |
