Howdy,

I've installed both moodle and mahara and following the mahoodle pdf.

In trying to get the single sign on working, I've found that moodle complains that the saved SSL key is different from the one mahara is publishing.

On further investigation, I've noticed mahara generating a new key, with new signatures (SHA1 & MD5) on each page refresh of the admin/site/networking.php page.

I'm using php-5.2.12 & openssl-0.9.8k

Cheers

Chris

Well the log shortened when I added the timezone setting in php.ini and restarted apache.

Here is what the error_log looks like now - so we've shortened what is wrong down to:

[SOLVED] Sort of.

My first dev server was PPC running gentoo.  I suspect it's something to do with php - I tried with php-5.2.12/5.2.13/5.3.x 

Since last week, I've moved my test to x86 architecture and there is no problems with the auto-renewing certificate.

Cheers
