mod_ssl / Apache 2.2.3 / Windows
We are trying to implement: Windows XP, Apache 2.2.3, mod_ssl and running into problems. Question: Is it possible to do this under Windows without compiling Apache from source? We were able to get it to work using Apache 2.0.59 after some wrangling with OpenSSL and cert creation. (Had to create the certs on a Unix (FreeBSD) system / OpenSSL install) I would like to ask if there is a how-to document for mod_ssl / Apache 2.2.3 / Winderz that covers how to do this successfully. We keep running into Apache complaining it cannot load / find the mod_ssl.so module. We have taken the proper steps in adding LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so to the httpd.conf file and adding the mod_ssl.so file to the modules directory. But every time we attempt to start the server it fails with the error cannot load / find the mod_ssl.so file. Are there other files missing? We have OpenSSL installed and the libeay32.dll & ssleay32.dll installed in system32 directory. Is there a precompiled mod_ssl.so available for Windows? Thanks a lot for any direction. __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List modssl-users@modssl.org Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Proxy Pass with SSL redirect
Hi,
I have an SSL enabled Apache server at the front end and BEA Web logic at the backend. Recently I have installed SSL certificate successfully and I have redirected all http requests to https by adding the following line at
httpd.conf file,
www.mydomain.com:80>ServerName www.mydomain.comRewriteEngine OnRewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=onRewriteRule ^/(.*)
https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [L,R,NC]
It works smoothly, but the problem is I can't access the page that is actually located at the back end web logic server, which is accessed using proxy pass. If I access the pages that is on back end server using http it works. Following is the proxy pass portion of
httpd.conf file,
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /topup http://192.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/topupProxyPassReverse /topup http://192.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/topup
My Goal is to forward all http requests to https. Do I really need to install SSL Certificates on the back end server? Is there any way to accomplish my goal without installing SSL Certificate on the back end server?
I hope it's clear and hope to having a solution soon.
Best regards,A.rasheed
