Hmmmm.... when the apachectl isdn't patched correctly you should have seen an
error under configure time. Because the whole configuration, building and
installation went fine for you, I guess you've messed up something. Are you
sure the /apache_1.3.4/bin/httpd actually is the patches one? Run
"/apache_1.3.4/bin/httpd -l", there should be a mod_ssl.c unless you used the
DSO facility. And the /apache_1.3.4/bin/apachectl script should really contain
an startssl entry. But ok, the startssl is not important. It's nothing more
than a wrapper around "/apache_1.3.4/bin/httpd -DSSL", so try to start it this
way.
Nevertheless can you find out for me why /apache_1.3.4/bin/apachectl hasn't
the startssl patched in?
