Looks like something about the configuration of the certificate, but I
do not specifically what ... I have only done tests with self-signed
certificates.

-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
blablabla
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Do you mean with different port than 8443, by exemple 8765 ?. If so,
what is the output of:
netstat -tulpn | grep ':8765'
