You can use apache13-modssl just as a replacment to apache13.
But apache13-modssl uses extrand API, so you have to
recompile all apache modules with apache13-modssl installed.
all modules will build, install and run fine, maybe portupgrade
will see wrong dependencys.
some ports suports this very well using in /etc/make.conf
APACHE_PORT=www/apache13-modssl
still some ports use a obsolete setting like:
APACHE_PORT=${PORTSDIR}/www/apache13-modssl
AP_PORT=www/apache13-modssl
AP_PORT=apache13-modssl
This might be improved after The 4.9 Release

I am a little shaky in the knees at this prospect. This is on a
production web server getting over 1 million page views per day. I use
mod_php4, mod_auth_pgsql, mod_gzip, mailman, and I have some other ports
installed like squirrelmail, mnogosearch, a bunch of pear libraries (not
even sure if they are dependent on apache13), phpMyAdmin and probably a
few other things I haven't even thought of. gulp
Once this is done do all these ports change to think they are dependent
on apache13-modssl rather than www/apache13?
Yes, the PR#32604 will fix this.
But even now, you don't have to worry,
just be sure the modules are compiled with only www/apache13-modssl
installed, if portupgrade dones not overwrite with with www/apache13
in some coases you are perfectly fine, even if some ports register
a wrong dependency.

You probably should have a test server where you can test the software upgrade under non-production conditions... If you have another machine you can do this with much less stress. 1.Build the second machine (aka new server); 2. Rsync the files over (or from a backup). 3. Pull the network plug on the original; 4. Run a script to fire off any extra ip addresses for your new server. 5. Apachectl startssl on the new server. Now it should be running and you can do spot checks to see how your crucial sites are doing... If everything is ok thats great! If not then pull the network plug on the new server and plug the old one back in while you see where the problems are on the new one...

Re: apache13 to apache13-modssl port migration
I made the same transition... I had apache13 installed from ports, and then found myself in need of SSL support. I didn't uninstall apache13, I simply went to the apache13-modssl port and typed: make all install clean No problems. There was a new httpsd.conf file under my /usr/local/etc/apache directory and I simply cut and pasted the virtual host information from my httpd.conf to httpsd.conf file. Then I followed the instructions on the mod-ssl web site. http://www.modssl.org/ Good luck Peter Elsner At 08:04 PM 9/9/2003 -0700, you wrote: I am currently running /usr/ports/www/apache13 and I want to switch to /usr/ports/www/apache13-modssl.

Re: apache13 to apache13-modssl port migration
Don't install it on top of you old installation. cd /usr/ports/www/apache13 make deinstall - or - pkg_delete -f apache-1.3.xx Then: cd /usr/ports/www/apache13-modssl make install clean make certificate (optional) Your original httpd.conf won't be deleted. You can use the new one (httpd.conf-dist) as a reference for the SSL directives and migrate your settings. You should also manually replace the old startup script with the new one (apache.sh-sample) as it is slightly different (it enables mod_ssl at startup).
