Your guess is absolutely correct! I am running Linux Slackware 10.2. Where could I get hold of a copy of "openssl-dev package" and the "SSL library" please? Could I find them on the www.openssl.org website?
You mentioned "Ubuntu". Do you mean www.ubuntu.com? Also if I want to implement digest authentication after installing Apache. Is it necessary to include the "--enable-auth-digest" directive during the Apache configuration process? e.g. ./configure --enable-auth-digest --prefix=/home/httpd --enable-ssl --enable-module=so What if I failed to include the "--enable-auth-digest" directive during configuration process? Will it be still possible to implement digest authentication after the installation? If I go to the ubunto website and found the files indicated by you: libssl libssl-dev openssl Are they compatible with Linux Slackware 10.2? Does it have a compatibility problem with any particular version of Linux, Apache, PHP and mySQL? Do you by chance happen to know which version of PHP works best with which version of MySQL?

No recognized SSL/TLS toolkit detected. There are two possibilities: your installation is lacking OpenSSL or, if you are running Linux, it's lacking the openssl-dev package. What we ship is mod_ssl, the module that wraps the HTTP protocol in SSL or TLS encryption. We don't ship the SSL library itself, but instead require that one is installed. We support OpenSSL and (I think, but haven't tried) RSA ssl-c. You don't tell us which platform you are using, but on Linux packages tend to be split up into a user part (openssl in our case) and a developer part. You need both and configure will fail with the above message if it can't find the -dev package. For instance, on Ubuntu you'll want libssl libssl-dev openssl installed before you build Apache. > The steps I took to configure was I added the --enable-ssl command > to the configuration step: > > ./configure --prefix=/home/httpd --enable-ssl --enable-module=so That's spot on. If you have your OpenSSL installation installed somewhere on your system but not in the default /usr or /usr/local or so, you should point to it using --with-ssl=/path/to/your/openssl .
