Apache SSL handshake interrupted by system

  • 772

I have an up-to-date Ubuntu 12.04 server running Apache 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.4.
For every HTTPS request my Apache logs record what appear to be error messages related to encrypted connections.

Self-signed certificate was generated based on instructions from Ubuntu 12.04 » Ubuntu Server Guide » Security » Certificates

Qualys SSL Labs shows no problems with the server config(other than self-signed cert).

Relevant section of Apache config is:

<VirtualHost *:443>
  ServerName site.domain.net:443
  ...snip...
  SSLEngine             on
  SSLCertificateFile    /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.crt
  SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.key
  SSLProtocol           all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
  SSLHonorCipherOrder   on
  SSLCompression        off
</VirtualHost>

Error logs are showing entries similar to this:

[Wed Feb 19 10:47:01 2014] [info] [client xx.xx.61.4] Connection to child 2 established (server site.domain.net:443) 
[Wed Feb 19 10:47:01 2014] [info] Seeding PRNG with 656 bytes of entropy 
[Wed Feb 19 10:47:01 2014] [info] [client xx.xx.61.4] (70014)End of file found: SSL handshake interrupted by system [Hint: Stop button pressed in browser?!] 
[Wed Feb 19 10:47:01 2014] [info] [client xx.xx.61.4] Connection closed to child 2 with abortive shutdown (server site.domain.net:443)

Browser is not hitting Stop button as the log implies.

Why am I getting these errors, what do they mean and how to stop them?

apache-2.2
