Invalid method in request L

External Since: Apr 04, 2004 Posts: 1

Hi out there,

i tried to set up Apache 2.0.48 with SSL, but i get a confusing error in the
logfile.

"Invalid method in request L" (Internet Explorer)
"Invalid method in request g" (Mozilla)

I'm running Apache 2.0.48 on a SuSE 9 system with OpenSSL 0.9.7b - all
packages have been installed with YaST.

I "googled" for that error, but didn't found really helpful hints

Does anybody have a idea?
With Greetings from Erlangen, Germany

looks like you're talking plain http to an ssl server or vice versa.
so try either

<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://yourserver:443/" target="_blank">http://yourserver:443/</a> or <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="https://yourserver:80/" target="_blank">https://yourserver:80/</a> if any of this works,
you might want to have a critical look at the mod_ssl configuration...
