mod_ssl.so cannot be found...

[cyrus10101]

Hello...

I am trying to install mod_ssl for Apache runing on Windows 2000. Here are the various version of Apache, Mod_SSL, and OpenSSL that I am using:

> Apache_1.3.20
> Mod_SSL_2.8.4
> OpenSSL_0.9.6a

I am getting the following error when I start apache:

> Syntax error on line 205 of f:/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
> Cannot load f:/modules/mod_ssl.so into server:
> (126) The specified module could not be found:

This message seems to be an incorrect since the mod_ssl.so file is located in f:/apache/modules/ directory. Does anybody know what is going on here?

Please Help...

When you used LoadModule in httpd.conf, did you remember to make changes in the AddModule section too?

I'm not sure but I think if your version of Apache doesn't have these installed, you may have to get the source code and recompile it.

Sorry I couldn't be much help but I'm running a Linux box and it is a lot different from Windows.

copy from c:\apache\openssl\lib libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll into c:\Apache.

Bye

Indeed the error message is incorrect as the mod_ssl.so
is found and loaded. I assume the error is coming when
it tries to load the following libraries libeay32.dll
and ssleay32.dll (and doesn't find them?)
I copied both files in C:\WINNT\System32 and it works fine!

I'm sorry. the directory is wrong. The correct directory is c:\apache\openssl\BIN.

copy from c:\apache\openssl\BIN libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll into c:\Apache.

Thanks

Simply add the OpenSSL\lib and \bin directories to your search path. This allows the files to be kept in their directories without littering the NT\system32 folder.
