I've installed apache2.2 and also installed openssl.

When I try to start apache I get this error.

/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start
Syntax error on line 56 of /usr/local/etc/apache22/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:
Invalid command 'SSLPassPhraseDialog', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

 
Can't tell from here, but a look at line 56 of /usr/local/etc/apache22/extra/httpd-ssl.conf might be a good starting point.
 
I did that. I didn't see anything wrong. If I comment SSLPassPhraseDialog out then it just errors on the next line,
SSLSessionCache
 
Is "SSLPassPhraseDialog" the first Apache directive beginning with "SSL" in your configuration file?

If so, at the point in httpd.conf where "SSLPassPhraseDialog" sits, mod_ssl has not been loaded yet. Those directives have no meaning to Apache until mod_ssl is loaded. See

Thanks sleipnir. Yes SSLPASSPhraseDialog is the first Apache directive. I'll take a look at the link you sent.
 
If that doesn't help, you might want to post the whold problem container from httpd-ssl.conf
