Show variables says have_openssl = NO for the binary version. I compiled and installed the source version using "--with-vio --with-openssl=/usr/bin" and it still says have_openssl = NO. I'm not sure what path -with-openssl is expecting but other than that I'm not sure where to look next. FreeBSD 4.6 says OpenSSL is installed as part of the base system and indeed it does seem to be installed, or at least something called the "OpenSSL Toolkit" is installed and I have the /usr/bin/openssl command available. I'm not getting any errors in the mysqld log when I start the server, just no SSL support. I'm hoping someone can throw some thoughts out here.

Any help appreciated. --with-vio and --with-openssl are for configuring from source. If you installed a -max server from a binary version, those options don't apply. To see whether your server is SSL capable, use this query: mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'have_openssl'; +---------------+-------+ | Variable_name | Value | +---------------+-------+ | have_openssl | YES | +---------------+-------+ If it is, you'll see YES. If not, you'll see NO or no output at all. > >Thanks, >David Rock > --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
