Do you have a compelling need to compile your own apache? I encourage
it, but only if it makes sense for you. Most people are better off using
the distribution's package manager to maintain updates (and can safely
ignore version numbers)>
When I tried to configure Apache .... I got the erroe :
checking for SSL/TLS toolkit includes... configure: error: OpenSSL
headers not found
You are probably not passing the correct parameters to ./configure. You
just need to do a bit more research. You can dissect the Mandriva source
package to see which flags they use.
The OpenSSL version is 0.9.7g
Why I could not see OpenSSL When I check for Installed softwares in
Mandriva-Control-Center.
Maybe you need to install the development RPM for OpenSSL. Many
distributions put headers in separate packages to keep the system lean
when the machine will not be used to compile software. Always look for
these packages and install them when needed. Or switch to a distribution
like Slackware, which includes them by default.
My Questions:
How can I solve this problem
Install the -devel RPMs.
How can I upgrade OpenSSL to 0.9.8
Don't. You will probably break everything that depends on OpenSSL in
your RPM-based system. Wait until you have more experience.
If I stuck ....Where I can find help and proper documentation...
This problem was a Mandriva issue, not an OpenSSL one, so it's best to
start with a Mandriva forum, where others may have dealt with the
specifics of your environment, and are in a better position to give advice.
I am sorry if I am not asking appropriate questions....
This is my first mail to the list...
No problem, you have to start somewhere. Just keep in mind that OpenSSL
is used by a variety of applications on a variety of platforms. Its use
in Apache has a high profile, but this list has nothing to do with
Apache. It's primarily aimed at programmers that use OpenSSL libraries
in their applications, or users of the tools provided by OpenSSL to
manage certificates.
