SSL Failure

SSL Failure
Hey guys,

I've got a problem with SSL on my server. It is all set up using vhosts and has been working perfectly for 2 weeks now, nothing has changed. Today, some clients have told me that there sites are not working, and after having a look at my apache logs, it seems ssl has failed, despite nothing changing! the vhosts file is the same, certificates haven't changed name or directory, yet ssl is failing to work and it isn't telling me why it's failing. The error log says as follows...

[Sat Jul 04 21:17:21.154169 2015] [ssl:emerg] [pid 4744] AH02240: Server should be SSL-aware but has no certificate configured [Hint: SSLCertificateFile] (($
[Sat Jul 04 21:17:21.154227 2015] [ssl:emerg] [pid 4744] AH02312: Fatal error initialising mod_ssl, exiting.


Like I said, no files have been renamed, moved or no configs changed at all, so why has it failed?

Need help!

RE: SSL Failure
I'd be checking file permissions also double check that no files have been moved/removed, start isolation testing, by editing the a vhost a time commenting out the ssl stuff. and doing apache reload to check if the vhost load passes.

also could try doing
Code:
a2dismod ssl
then
a2enmod ssl
