Hello all,

I have a problem I was wondering if anyone could help me out with.

I'm running Gentoo, and am trying to set up a mail server according to the Gentoo desktop configuration guide, using postfix and the Squirrelmail web client as it recommends (I got bored). However, Apache is being a bit stubborn. After finding that the ssl wasn't built in with Apache 1.3.28, I've compiled mod_ssl and ran the ebuild config. It adds the following lines to /etc/apache/conf/apache.conf:

Code:
<IfDefine SSL>
LoadModule ssl_module    extramodules/libssl.so
</IfDefine>
...
<IfDefine SSL>
AddModule mod_ssl.c
</IfDefine>


The problem? Leaving the config file as is is out, because there is no /etc/apache/extramodules/libssl.so. There's only one file by the name of libssl.so, but it's in /usr/lib, and trying to give Apache that one makes it spit an undefined symbol error at me. ("Can't locate API module structure `ssl_module' in file /usr/lib/libssl.so: /usr/sbin/apache: undefined symbol: ssl_module")

Also, there is no mod_ssl.c anywhere on my system, according to locate.

The mod_ssl ebuild created all of the necessary conf files, but none of the necessary modules. Apache can't find the things it needs for mod_ssl. I've already done the php step, and that worked perfectly. I'm sure I'm going to feel silly when I find out what happened, but does anyone have any idea what I've missed?

Thanks in advance.

By the way, if anyone here is on the LUG@GT mailing list or the LiveJournal linux community, sorry for putting you through this question multiple times.

Add me to the list of same problem (apache1.3.29) - I guess this is Gentoo's way of making us move to apache 2 ?

Hehe

...weeeird. The ebuild worked fine for me, except that I'm using apache 1.3.29-r1, which is the latest stable 1.x release. My libssl.so for apache is in /usr/lib/apache-extramodules/.

I re-emerged and all is fine as well.

Code:

emerge apache mod_php mod_ssl


All is ok after issuing the ebuild command for mod_php.

Code:

ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-4.3.3-r3/mod_php-4.3.3-r3.ebuild config


Note: the versions of mod_php may differ, using tab complete should help here

Only issue is mod_ssl still points to /home/httpd and not the new document root of /var/www/locallhost/htdocs
