Thanks for the info. I was able to get a clean build from the apache and openssl source distributions last night.
The apache site contains the following page which describes pretty well how to build the openssl, and apache with mod_ssl directly from the source if you have the microsoft developer studio. http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/platform/win_compiling.html I used developer studio 6 and was able able to get a clean apache build with ssl using openssl 9.7e and the apache 2.0.52 source distribution along with the other tools required for the build, i.e. perl, awk. Couple minor issues I did run into were: 1) In order for the "mod_deflate" to compile, I had to use the zlib 1.1.4 source distribution, not the 1.2.2 which is the "latest" for windows. 2) The instructions for running the perl scripts to build openssl are a little unclear. First you untar the openssl so that the openssl source tree is in the srclib/openssl directory. You must cd into the the srclib/openssl directory, then execute the perl scripts as described. 3) On windows you can't execute the command. perl util\mk1mf.pl dll no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea VC-WIN32 >makefile It will overwrite the "Makefile" that is previously configured. You must direct the output to another filename, e.g. perl util\mk1mf.pl dll no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea VC-WIN32 >makefile.rel then "nmake /f nakefile.rel" for the release build. Other than this it went pretty well. There are no pre-build ssl keys or certificates that I could find in the source distribution, so I used the openssl.exe application to create a key and a (self-signed certificate) and droped then add them as the conf/ssl.key/server.key and conf/ssl.crt/server.crt files.

Januar 2005 18:51 An: [email protected] Betreff: Apache 2 with mod_ssl for windows I've previously build Apache 1.3 for Windows with ssl support using mod_ssl so I'm familiar with this process. I looks like I need to do it for Apache 2 as well because I didn't see the mod_ssl module in the windows pre-packaged install and the "no ssl" at the end of the installer filename was a clue. It looks like the mod_ssl source module is included with the apache source distribution. I am just looking for any advice before I start building Apach 2 + ssl. Are there any things to look out for not mentioned in the apache docs for instance? Any references (other then the apache site) that would be helpful for building Apache 2 ssl would also be appreciated.
