Apache SSL "Document Contains no Data"

I installed apache and mod_ssl. There is an apache-ssl server running on port 443, but when I try to connect with a browser (say Mozilla) it gives me an error "Document Containts no Data". I've generated the certificate and regenerated the key and still no luck. Any suggestions?

What does it say in your apache logs? Are you trying to access: https://localhost?

Could you confirm that you're trying to connect to https://localhost and not http://localhost? Don't forget the "s" in "https". If you try to connect to http://localhost, you'll be authenticated, but you'll get a "Document contains no data" error message.

I type in (from a browser on another computer) (ip changed):

151.188.3.1

which bring up:

http://151.188.3.1/

in the address bar. Then I add the 's' to the end of http and get:

https://151.188.3.1/

in the address field. When I hit enter, the page does not load but rather returns that error.

Hmm. I don't know then. What's your DocumentRoot set to? Is there an index.html file there?

I telnetted to the port, and it looks like it is running just a plain old http web server on port 443, so it's not understanding the ssl requests. I'm going to look into the configs and see if I can figure out why it's doing that.
