Your statement "I'm using RH 7.1" is the critical one for me. RedHat 7.1 (Which I assume you mean) includes openssl by default. If you build openssl from source and replace that which comes with it, you will break about 24 packages, including sendmail (I can send you a list if you want).
Specifically, Apache 1.3.19 comes with RedHat 7.1, which is probably the package that owns the httpd.conf file you are looking at Try the following to check this: rpm -q --whatprovides /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (Although of course it is likely that you've overwritten this file) I suggest you look at http://www.redhat.com/errata/ and ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide for updates to RedHat 7.1 and the latest packages for Apache and mod_ssl. You can build from source RPMS, which gives you just as much control over what you build, although it is more fiddly. I've offered to help with installing these before on either this list or the mod_ssl list (and unfortunately I deleted my last offer!) John -----Original Message----- From: The_polymorph To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 29/09/01 21:12 Subject: Major OpenSSL/mod_ssl install problems. Hi all. After building OpenSSL 0.9.6b, the latest version of mod_ssl for apache 1.3.20 and rsaref 2.0 ( all without incident ), I experienced the following problems: 1). My httpd.conf file has *no* mention of SSL *anywhere =* in the file. 2). After starting apache in SSL mode ( apachectl startssl ), it works fine but I cannot connect to port 443. The message is connection refused by server. For the record I am using RH 7.1. What might the problem(s) be? Thanks, -Caitlin. ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
