 www.openssl.org/download/win32 ?? :)

As notified yesterday I've found what I needed. My point was
that I couldn't find the openssl.exe in the
Apache_1.3.26-Mod_SSL_2.8.10-OpenSSL_0.9.6d-Win32.zip archive,
so I had to download it separately.

Kind regards,
Brendan

Re: Failure to load mod_ssl under NT/apache 2.0

 I've been trying to get apache 2.0.39 +modssl to work under winNT. 
  But i am failing at what seems like the first hurdle i.e. i cannot seem to get the 
 apache mod_ssl.so module to load.  It comes up with the following:
 
 Cannot load C:/apache2/modules/mod_ssl.so into server: The operating 
 system cannot run %1

Experienced the same prob myself just yesterday. Consider the
following checklist:

* Download Apache_1.3.26-Mod_SSL_2.8.10-OpenSSL_0.9.6d-Win32.zip
  from www.modssl.org/contrib

* Download latest OpenSSL binary for Win32 from same location

* Unzip the apache archive into where you want your Apache to live

* Unzip the OpenSSL archive where you want your OpenSSl to live

* Ensure that your Path (System variable) is set to include the OpenSSL
  directory (wherever you chose to install it). (You can set the path
  by hitting Windows and Pause/Break keys, which will bring up the System
  Properties dialog. Under NT you select Environment tab and then select Path
  from the list of System Variables, then type to change it).
  As an additional measure, you may find that copying the .dll files (that
  are in the same directory as openssl.exe) to WINNT/System32 helps (although
  setting the path should also achieve the same end result)

* Make sure your httpd.conf includes both the LoadModule and AddModule
  directives

If I think of anything else, I'll let you know. I can also forward you some
troubleshooting emails (provided to me by a colleague) if the above does not
help?

Good luck!

I'm somewhat confused.

I downloaded and uncompressed the above archive, uncompressed and was
delighted to find that mod_ssl was present in the modules directory.

But I couldn't find any openssl.exe and, from what I gather, I need this
executable/toolkit to generate a key pair and CSR?

I'm a bit new to web server security and have just had responsibility
thrust upon me, so I thank you all for your patience :)

Kind regards,

Thanks all, everything now solved (thanks in large part to the realisation
that all the stuff needed is under http://www.modssl.org/contrib AND the
help of a kind soul named Mark Anderson in Queensland Australia).

Thanks again  kind regards,

Mod_SSL for Windows 2000/NT/XP

2002-07-15 Thread Brendan Lloyd

Hi all,

I am a new member to this group. I have a question which was asked on
2002-06-07 by Ike Ikonne (for which I could not locate any answer in
the list archives) so please forgive me for the repetition...

My situation is like Ike's: I too need to install mod_ssl and Open_SSL
(ie. require secure web transaction capabilities), with questions as
follows:

* How can I build OpenSSL and mod_ssl on NT or 2000 (ie. do I have to
  buy compiler software)?

* Alternatively, is there a sitfrom which I can download precompiled
  versions of (or an installation Wizard for) the above?

Please advise,
Thanks and kind regards,
Brendan Lloyd

 Yes you can, but you'll need to buy MS Visual C++ to compile Apache.
 Instructions are available at:
 http://httpd.apache.org/docs/windows.html
 http://www.modssl.org/source/exp/mod_ssl/pkg.mod_ssl/INSTALL.Win32

I note that the modssl install instructions are out of date (as are
the versions of required software referenced). For example, the CygWin
version has been deprecated since about 1998!

 I guess you'll prefer to use the precompiled version avaiable below.

Yes, absolutely!
