Hello,

Is it possible after installation to add ssl on an apache-no_ssl on windows.
I haven't find any way to configure it.
Do I have to reinstall an apache version with SSL

Thanks

Yes it can be done. You will have to manually create a config for it, or steal one from a ssl version which may be difficult since much of the config files are generated during that .msi install process, or steal one from the distribution here.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply
By manually, do you mean that I need to copy module/mod_ssl.so, bin/openssl.exe, bin/ssleay32.dll, bin/libeay32.dll and conf/openssl.crt and create an httpd-ssl.conf manually?

Is it enough to make it working?

Yes, it is that simple, mod_ssl is like any mod_xxx. mod_deflate compresses, mod_ssl encrypts/authenticates. BUT

The binaries in the distribution here are built on Visual C++ 2008 (vc9)
That .msi at apache.org was built with vc6 and they will not mix.
So, you will need to get the binaries (.exe/dll/so) from apache.org, and use this httpd-ssl.conf file. You may need to match versions as well but I will not swear to it.

Your Apache/ssl is almost a year and a half old. Quite a bit has happened since then. It would be prudent to use the most recent release, especially when it comes to mod_ssl/openssl. You may need to upgrade it all to do that.

I should have probably said just unistall/install new backing up config and htdocs.
