It comes up with the following: > > Cannot load C:/apache2/modules/mod_ssl.so into server: The operating > system cannot run %1 Experienced the same prob myself just yesterday. Consider the following checklist: * Download Apache_1.3.26-Mod_SSL_2.8.10-OpenSSL_0.9.6d-Win32.zip from www.modssl.org/contrib * Download latest OpenSSL binary for Win32 from same location * Unzip the apache archive into where you want your Apache to live * Unzip the OpenSSL archive where you want your OpenSSl to live * Ensure that your Path (System variable) is set to include the OpenSSL directory (wherever you chose to install it). (You can set the path by hitting Windows and Pause/Break keys, which will bring up the System Properties dialog. Under NT you select Environment tab and then select Path from the list of System Variables, then type to change it). As an additional measure, you may find that copying the .dll files (that are in the same directory as openssl.exe) to WINNT/System32 helps (although setting the path should also achieve the same end result) * Make sure your httpd.conf includes both the LoadModule and AddModule directives If I think of anything else, I'll let you know. I can also forward you some troubleshooting emails (provided to me by a colleague) if the above does not help? Good luck!

My point was that I couldn't find the openssl.exe in the Apache_1.3.26-Mod_SSL_2.8.10-OpenSSL_0.9.6d-Win32.zip archive, so I had to download it separately.

I downloaded and uncompressed the above archive, uncompressed and was delighted to find that mod_ssl was present in the modules directory.

And last but not least: can anyone clarify what the state of Apache 2.0 is with regards to OpenSSL/mod_ssl? I've read in some places that Apache 2.0 supports/includes these, but then when I went to download the Windows binary distribution it had the suffix "no_ssl"? What's going on?

Mod_SSL for Windows 2000/NT/XP
Hi all, I am a new member to this group. I have a question which was asked on 2002-06-07 by Ike Ikonne (for which I could not locate any answer in the list archives) so please forgive me for the repetition... My situation is like Ike's: I too need to install mod_ssl and Open_SSL (ie. require secure web transaction capabilities), with questions as follows: * How can I build OpenSSL and mod_ssl on NT or 2000 (ie. do I have to buy compiler software)? * Alternatively, is there a sitfrom which I can download precompiled versions of (or an "installation Wizard" for) the above? Please advise, Thanks and kind regards, Brendan Lloyd __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]
