Serving LinOTP (MFA Solution) over a Different Port than 443 - Unable to Authenticate after Port Change

I would like to serve LinOTP on a port different the 443. The port I've chosen is 8458. I was able to figure out how to do this on Amazon Linux 2 but I am getting an authentication error when signing in.

In order to do this I modified two lines in the config file for the Port I am using (port 8458) /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl_linotp.conf. These were lines:

#Listen 443
Listen 8458
#<VirtualHost _default_:443>
<VirtualHost _default_:8458>

After I changed this config and restart Apache, I am unable to authenticate MFA using this particular setup.

To investigate further, I looked at the log file here: /var/log/linotp/linotp.log and I am getting the following error:

ERROR [linotp.lib.audit.base][getAuditClass #52] No suitable Audit Class found. Working with dummy AuditBase class. Probably you didn't configure 'linotpAudit' in the linotp.ini file.

The file linotp.ini is located at /etc/linotp2/linotp.ini. When I look at the audit section of that file there are only four items that are uncommented out. I've pasted in the entire Audit section:

     48 ##############################################################################
     49 ## LinOTP Configuration:
     50 ## ---------------------
     51 ## in the following section you can define the LinOTP process parameters
     52 [DEFAULT]
     53 debug = false
     54 profile = false
     55 # Uncomment and replace with the address which should receive any error reports
     56 #email_to = you@yourdomain.com
     57 smtp_server = localhost
     58 error_email_from = paste@localhost
     59 
     61 ## Audit Log:
     62 ## ---------
     63 ## Audit log capability will log all requests in a non repudiable way in a
     64 ## audit log database. To switch the audit capability on uncomment the
     65 ## linotpAudit.type, which should point to your audit log class
     66 #linotpAudit.type = linotp.lib.audit.SQLAudit
     67 #linotpAudit.sql.url = mysql://linotp2:1234@localhost/LinOTP2
     68 
     69 linotpAudit.key.private = %(here)s/private.pem
     70 linotpAudit.key.public = %(here)s/public.pem
     71 
     72 ## define the max amount of audit log entries in the log database
     73 ## - one SQL audit entry might take up about 1K of space
     74 linotpAudit.sql.highwatermark = 10000
     75 linotpAudit.sql.lowwatermark = 5000
     76 
     77 
     78 ## Audit table and column definition:
     79 ## ----------------------------------
     80 ## some databases don't support the used table or column names
     81 ## to prevent collission the following table and column prefix
     82 ## can be defined
     83 #linotpAudit.sql.table_prefix = lino
     84 
     85 
     86 ## Audit Data truncation:
     87 ## ----------------------
     88 ## Some databases (eg. MySQL) silently truncate data if the data is longer that
     89 ## the VARCHAR column definition. To prevent this silent truncation an error
     90 ## can be raised.
     91 ## Other databases (e.g. Oracle, PostgreSQL) raise an exception (if the data
     92 ## length exceeds the field length).
     93 ## Basically we make sure all DBs behave the same way. If error_on_truncation is
     94 ## set to True, an Exception is raised. If error_on_truncation is False (default)
     95 ## then the  data is silently truncated.
     96 ##
     97 ## Caution: Setting this parameter to True might make your system unusable!
     98 ##
     99 # linotpAudit.error_on_truncation = True

Can someone please help me troubleshoot what this error means? If it's not super clear, perhaps there is another location that needs to have the port modified or how to effectively configure this Audit configuration.

Thanks for your help.
