Following up on my earlier comments.... > > Cannot load /usr/local/apache_test/libexec/libssl.so into server
The fact that I missed this at first is proof that programmers shouldn't work when still running a fever. Even a low grade one, if it's following a 40C monster. "libexec" is normally used by the shared libraries used by Apache modules, not by system libraries. mod_ssl is a weird beast, but if you compiled it to use the "system" SSL library you should probably make sure that openssl is set up in some system library. The fastest way to do this may be to forget about Apache entirely for now - get a simple program like: #include <openssl/crypto.h> int main() { (void) OPENSSL_malloc(1024); return 0; } to compile and run. That will assure you that the SSL library (or at least the -lcrypto part of it) is properly installed. Once you know this, you'll know any remaining issues are mod_ssl or Apache specific. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
