I am very familiar configuring mod_ssl / openssl / apache. Can someone
advise as to the pitfalls I might encounter, if there are any, and how
to overcome them when upgrading from the following versions of software
to the latest on a FREEBSD box?
OS: 3.2-STABLE FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE #2 i386 (not a chance of upgrading
this to latest...yet!)
APACHE: 1.3.9
MODSSL: mod_ssl/2.4.0
OPENSSL: OpenSSL/0.9.4
What I am really worried about is my vhost's certs. Will they still
work if I upgrade modssl and openssl?
Yep, there shouldn't be any problems with that. There's even an option
to mod_ssl's configure if you want to point to existing certs. You could
probably even use the same httpd.conf.
Will they still work if I just upgrade apache and mod_ssl (do I even
need to upgrade openssl at all?)
I would recommend upgrading openssl for performance and other fixes,
but you probably don't really have to.
OR
Can I just upgrade apache and keep the current versions of modssl and openssl...?
No. You must have the correct version of mod_ssl to fit the Apache.
There is also quite a lot that have happened to mod_ssl that will
make an upgrade worth the trouble.
