Run "httpd -V" and see if "-DEAPI" shows up. If it does, well, you need
someone else to provide assistance. Most likely, "-DEAPI" will not be
present in the list of compile-time definitions.
In which case, you'll need to download and recompile Apache. If you are
set on using RPMs, I would recommend installing the SRPM that matches
the RPM you have installed right now; go into
/usr/local/src/redhat/SPECS and edit the spec file for apache to include
"--enable-rule=EAPI" on the configure command-line, then rebuild with
"rpm -bb apache.spec" (or whatever it's called).
After it rebuilds, go into /usr/local/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/ and run "rpm
-Uvh apache-1.3.6.i386.rpm" (or whatever it's called). *THEN* try
reinstalling mod_ssl.
Personally, I would recommend ripping out the RedHat apache installation
and recompiling it from the tarball. That's what I did, and everything
is so much happier now. OTOH, it's not under RPM control which means
upgrading to RH6.1 will involve some extra issues.
