httpsd can't start up



Dear all,

I've just compiled the httpsd on linux 2.0.29 with apache_1.2.6 and SSLeay
0.8.0. I followed the instructions in the README.SSL to do the compilation
and no errors came up. I then modified the mime.types and httpd.conf that
came with the dist to set up the config of my site. I generate the
certificate by " make certificate". 

When all this was finished, I started httpsd. The following messages
showed up

"Reading certificate and key for server my_server_domain_name:8887"

then the process died.

I then checked the logs, only error_log has got the following message

"[Sat May 16 22:01:32 1998] getpwuid: Bad address
[Sat May 16 22:01:32 1998] - couldn't determine user name from uid
"

What's wrong with my installation and setup?

Thanks and regards
