port 443 not listening

[dictum9]

All of a sudden, when I do "netstat -a | grep 443", I do not see port 443 listening. How can I start SSL?

First off, you may want to do "netstat -an" instead of "-a" in case someone added port 443 to /etc/services, in which case "netstat -a" would show the name instead of the port number.

If you still don't see it after that, then restarting the service is highly dependent on the web server software you're running. For example, with Apache, it's typically "apachectl startssl".

It's not showing up in "netstat -an" either. I think I am going to restart apache.

The software is weblogic. Should I restart Weblogic?
