RewriteEngine on
# Redirect any traffic to https
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,R]]]> Security failure. Data decryption error. When using IE on a Mac http://www.markcallen.com/apache/security-failure-data-decryption-error-when-using-ie-on-a-mac mallen Mon, 13 Nov 2006 22:43:38 -0800 On Mac OS X when opening a new IE window from a site running under https there is no content in the window and the following error message is displayed:

Mac Decryption Error








This can be correct by changing the SSLSessionCache in the Apache httpd.conf file.


The error shows up when SSLSessionCache is set to none. If it is changed to:


SSLSessionCache dbm:/logs/ssl_scache


where is where apache is installed.


This will correct the problem.
