[hunchentoot-devel] Running Hunchentoot with ssl

[Brian]

I also just noticed that you didn't provide the private key file input 
to your start server function. Try something like:

          (hunchentoot::start-server :port 443
                                     ;:ssl-privatekey-password <password 
to key file if version of lisp supports this>
                                     :ssl-certificate-file 
*ssl-certificate-path*
                                     :ssl-privatekey-file 
*ssl-private-key-path*)

You will need both the certificate and private key files to start a 
secure server. The howto listed below provides the directions, make sure 
you use the instructions on a self-signed certificate when producing the 
certificate file.
