apache ssl new install

http://ip:2222/CMD_ADDITIONAL_DOMAINS?action=view&domain=domain.com

on this page if I select this item:

Secure SSL (Ignored if not allowed)

apache freezes up with this error at the exact moment I click save on that page:

[Sun Jun 4 15:57:19 2006] [notice] Apache/1.3.36 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.27 OpenSSL/0.9.7d PHP/4.4.2 FrontPage/5.0.2.2510 configured -- resuming normal operations

[Sun Jun 4 16:00:02 2006] [error] Cannot remove module mod_perl.c: not found in module list

then when I unselect it I get this (apache comes back on):

[Sun Jun 4 16:01:00 2006] [error] Cannot remove module mod_perl.c: not found in module list

This is a brand new install of DA and would like to be able to move forward, but I can't get past this point.

My other account didn't have a domain associated with admin, but had the main domain hostbandit.com associated with a different user, maybe the person who configured DA and the server had the same problem and had to move the main domain out of the admin user?

Any advice is appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello,

Try enabling the checkbox so that apache dies.
Once "dead", then login to ssh as root and type:

/sbin/service httpd restart

(or "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/httpd restart" if this is freebsd) and see if it says anything important. Also:
tail /var/log/httpd/error_log
tail /var/log/messages
