Apache + MOD_SSL Win32 crash

[Mike Campbell]

Hello, I'm running Apache 1.3.24 with MOD_SSL 2.8.8 on a Windows 2000 server.   I've installed and configured according to the "Apache + SSL on Win32 Howto" <http://tud.at/programm/apache-ssl-win32-howto.php3> and I've gotten a certificate from Thawte. I can and always have been able to make an (unsecure) http hit on the server. I can also make a secure https hit. However, if I reload the secure page a few times, sooner or later Apache crashes.   The error message that pops up says "Apache.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created." The Windows error log says it was an access violation and gives a stack dump, which I don't know how to read. The Apache error log and the SSL log are free of errors.   When starting Apache, the only complaint I was getting from the config file was: "Cannot add module via name 'mod_ssl.c': not in list of loaded modules" so I've commented that line out.   Does anyone have any suggestions?     These are the relevant lines in httpd.conf:  ### (other AddModules) ### #AddModule mod_ssl.c ...    ### (other LoadModules) ### LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so ...   Listen 80 Listen 443 ...   SSLMutex sem SSLRandomSeed startup builtin SSLSessionCache none   SSLLog logs/SSL.log SSLLogLevel info   <VirtualHost XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:80> DocumentRoot c:/... ServerName www.mydomain.com </VirtualHost> ...    ### (many other VirtualHosts) ###   <VirtualHost XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:443> SSLEngine On SSLCertificateFile conf/ssl/pubkey.cert SSLCertificateKeyFile conf/ssl/prvkey.key DocumentRoot c:/... ServerName www.mydomain.com </VirtualHost>     ------------------------------------------------- Mike Campbell          Aktiv Software Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED]          http://www.aktiv.com (250) 708-0027
