SSL Not being served by Apache

I am running multiple virtual hosts on my apache and I want one virtual host to server ssl.

I have followed the instructions given to me from where I purchased my certificate.

Whenever I visit my site using https, I get an "Unable to connect error" in Firefox.

My ssl.conf which is included by httpd.conf looks like this:

NameVirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443



DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/path/to/dir"

ServerName *.xxx.xxx.com
ServerAlias *.xxx.xxx.com
Alias /path "/var/www/html/development/path/to/somewhere/else"

SSLEngine on
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT:!SSLv2:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/crt/STAR_xxx_xxx_com.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/crt/private.key
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf/STAR_xxx_xxx_com.ca-bundle



  Order Deny,Allow 
  Allow from all
  Options -Indexes
  AllowOverride All

What else can I do to solve this?

EDIT Some other thoughts:

1. I have read that my apache has to be compiled somehow with SSL. Is this an issue?


2. In some configurations the Listen 443 in enclosed in tags. Is this also an issue?

When I do a lsof -I :443 I get a

COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME

httpd   9067 apache    5u  IPv6 78180368       TCP *:https (LISTEN)

I think prolly not waht I expected since I only want one virtual host to listen to 443. Or is this correct?

Was able to solve this problem by restarting the iptables

service iptables stop
service iptables start
