I think you need to take a step back and tell us what you've done to get 
into this situation.

The error messages are fairly clear. The first one was you had a bad 
password for the database. This current error is that the certificate 
referenced by the NSSNickname directive in nss.conf does not exist in 
the Apache NSS database.

These aren't the kinds of errors that pop up out of the blue. What, 
specifically, are you trying to do and what have you done to get to this 
point?
