http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15624 if SSL is defined httpd should complain about missing mod_ssl.so, etc. Summary: if SSL is defined httpd should complain about missing mod_ssl.so, etc. Product: Apache httpd-2.0 Version: 2.0.32 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Core AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] It is understood that due to (historic mostly?) reasons, mod_ssl cannot be distributed as freely as the rest of apache. But since for probably 99+ % of the people downloading apache, this is a non-issue, I suggest to at least safely warn naive admin's that in the case they did not touch the httpd.conf file in an SSL-related way, just because "apachectl sslstart" didn't thow out any warnings, that doesn't mean SSL is operational. In fact, one may easily end up with a running httpd that lets users access 443 with http (not httpS). Therefore, my suggestion is to check in httpd for the mod_ssl.so and other key variables determinig whether SSL is properly deployed when -DSSL is used on the command line at start-up. P.S.: the companion request to similarly improve apachectl is in http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15623 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
