where would i get mod_ssl for apache 2.0

httpd.apache.org should have some documentation on it ... the popular distros like RH, Fedora, Suse and Mandrake have rpms for them.

all i can find is mod_ssl for apache 1.0 i cant find it for 2.0

If I remember correctly, you can't have mod_ssl for Apache2. However, I'm told that it can be forced by some strange configure option - I've never cared to try it - I stick to Apache 1.3.29.

There are also other solutions, such as LAMPP and Apache-SSL, but I prefer mod_ssl

What distro are you running?

barrys · 12-30-2003, 06:59 PM

Type https://localhost/

if it is working. port is 443 but https sorts that out.

i am runing yellowdog linux and when i type https://localhost/
i get "page can not be displayed"

Assuming, you are seeing apache in http://localhost.

Have you run the command in the apache directory,

apachectl startssl?

or try apachectl stop then try it again to see if it does start the server again.

mod_ssl has been rolled into Apache2. It's already included in the source, and you can turn it on and off with configure options.

If you are building Apache from source, read the output of "./configure --help" for hints. If it is already compiled, check your conf file for SSL configuration options.
