Description

2011/10/21 00:39:14 [crit] 31592#0: *3 SSL_do_handshake() failed (SSL: error:260B9092:engine routines:ENGINE_get_cipher:unimplemented cipher error:0607B086:digital envelope routines:EVP_CipherInit_ex:initialization error error:1408F119:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:decryption failed or bad record mac) while SSL handshaking, client: 192.168.0.1, server: www.example.com

This is a validated certificate chain from InCommon, validated with certtool -e and openssl verify. Same files work with Courier-IMAP, Postfix, stunnel and other SSL programs. The worker process exits with signal 10. So far I've not been able to get a coredump.

Full configuration file to reproduce:

error_log /tmp/error.log debug;
events { worker_connections 128; }
http {

server {

listen 127.0.0.1:9443;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/server.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/server.key;

}

}

Thanks in advance.

I meant to say that is the minimum config file needed to reproduce the error; of course my config file has more in it normally. It works fine except for SSL.

This looks very similar to the problem discussed in this thread:

The problem is believed to be in OpenSSL version shipped with OpenBSD. Try using newer/vanilla one as available from www.openssl.org. Alternatively, try "ssl_engine aesni" in nginx config, it may resolve issue for you.

Indeed it does! Somehow I missed that thread... thanks very much!
