[L] Make sure you add mod_ssl to the Apache source tree first and then do a fresh configuration and installation of PHP3. For SSL support EAPI patches are required which have to change internal Apache structures. PHP3 needs to know about these in order to work correctly. Always make sure that -DEAPI is contained in the compiler flags when PHP3 is build. • When I startup Apache I get errors about undefined symbols like ap_global_ctx? [L] This actually means you installed mod_ssl as a DSO, but without rebuilding Apache with EAPI. Because EAPI is a requirement for mod_ssl, you need an extra patched Apache (containing the EAPI patches) and you have to build this Apache with EAPI enabled (explicitly specify –enable-rule=EAPI at the APACI command line). • When I startup Apache I get permission errors related to SSLMutex? [L] When you receive entries like “mod_ssl: Child could not open SSLMutex lockfile /opt/apache/logs/ssl_mutex.18332 (System error follows) […] System: Permission denied
