Yes AND no. Openssl is a completely separate package to Apache, so install
it separately and no, it won't screw up Apache. (or at least, it never has
here!) 

However, if you have a previous version of Apache installed before
installing Apache-mod_ssl, things probably won't work as you expect them to.


(What I've been doing is removing Apache from RedHat 6.2 machines and
installing opensll and Apache-mod_ssl separately. Looks like from RedHat 7.0
onwards I won't need to anymore.)

Subject: Re: Basic Question...Key Pair and CSR generation


The only thing that came up was in the src directory.  I basically followed
a
script to installed openssl, mm-1.1.3, mod_ssl, Apache, and jserv in that
order.  I ran Make for the first 3 packages and the ran the Apache
installation.  Everything is working great, but I can't seem to find
Openssl.
Should I install openssl separately AND will that screw up my Apache
configuration?
