Subject: apache 2.0.39 w/SSL on HP-UX 11.0 ignores SSLRandomSeed setting
User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.26i
Hello,
A recently built 2.0.39 fails to start with:
[Fri Jun 21 12:42:47 2002] [info] Init: Initializing OpenSSL library
[Fri Jun 21 12:42:47 2002] [info] Init: Seeding PRNG with 0 bytes of entropy
[Fri Jun 21 12:42:47 2002] [warn] Init: PRNG still contains not sufficient entropy!
[Fri Jun 21 12:42:47 2002] [info] Init: Generating temporary RSA private keys
(512/1024 bits)
[Fri Jun 21 12:42:47 2002] [error] Init: Failed to generate temporary 512 bit RSA
private key
Configuration Failed
Tracing revealed this behaviour:
[..]
write(8, "[ F r i J u n 2 1 1 2 : 4 ".., 77) ....... = (77)
getpid() ................................................. = 23638 (23637)
open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY, 0666) ..................... ERR#2 ENOENT
getuid() ................................................. = 0 (0)
time(NULL) ............................................... = 1024656167
gettimeofday(0x7f7f8c08, NULL) ........................... = 0
write(8, "[ F r i J u n 2 1 1 2 : 4 ".., 84) ....... = 84
[..]
To my surprise, this happens with the default configuration where
SSLRandomSeed is set to "builtin" and also when I change this
particular setting to point to the existing egd socket. It also
appears when the SSL include is commented out from httpd.conf .
Is there a bug in apache or mod_ssl or am I missing something here?
System is HP-UX 11.0, my build was:
CC=cc CFLAGS='+O3 +Onolimit -Ae' ./configure --enable-ssl
--with-ssl=/opt/openssl/0.9.6d --enable-so --prefix=/opt/apache2
TIA,
Volker
