2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

Hello list members,

We have just spent (wasted) 3 days trying to compile Apache 2.0.36 with
zlib and mod-ssl on win2k for a critical project and we have been
unsuccessful. Thus the offer of easy money!

We need working binaries for the config described above URGENTLY and we
are willing to pay $500 worth of real gold (www.goldmoney.com) to the
first person who can supply them to us. This gold can be redeemed for
cash anywhere in the world.

If you want even MORE easy money, we are willing to pay a further $500
worth of real gold to anyone who can help us to actually compile
successfully. Details of what we have done and our results are below for
those who are interested:

Source: Apache 2.0.36, OpenSSL 2.6.9d, zlib (latest)

First we discovered you can not use the instructions on the howto at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/platform/win_compiling.html ... the
instructions (perl commands) for creating the makefiles etc. before
compiling should not be used... Apache mod-ssl will need idea etc to
compile.

So we compiled OpenSSL using the instructions in INSTALL.W32 supplied
with OpenSSL and OpenSSL compiled perfectly first time with no errors or
warnings.

Next we moved the entire OpenSSL folder into ..\srclib\openssl as
instructed in the apache howto.
We also followed the instructions for zlib.

We got a version of awk for windows and installed it on the path as
instructed.

First we compiled without the openssl directory installed, and the nossl
version of Apache compiled fine, with the compile finishing with 4
warnings and no errors.

Compiling with the openssl directory installed brought a whole lot of
problems on!

First we got an error about not finding Bison, so we went and found a
Win2k version of bison (and bison.hairy and bison.simple)...

Then we needed flex, so we got that...

Then we needed sed, so we got that....

Then when we compiled we got an error "could not find y.tab.c etc"... we
discovered our version of bison uses y_tab.c and y_tab.h instead, so we
corrected that...

By now this had taken us a day or two of searching lists and web etc....

And still we get errors! now we are getting "undefined external _alloca"
errors...

So now we offer money for anyone who can help... we really would like to
get this right so we can write a proper howto, plus we have a critical
project we need to complete.

Thanks in advance,

John.

Re: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

Well, we got one response from Victor, but he seems to be unable to
follow through (we don't get any response from his private e-mail) so we
still have $500 for anyone who can give us working binaries of apache
2.0.36 with mod-ssl...

Anyone? Is this actually possible? Has anyone ever got this right?

John.

Of course it's possible. I'd do it for you but I'm not convinced that I
as a US citizen am allowed to export strong-encryption binaries from the
US. Which is, of course, the entire reason that the official
distributions don't come with mod_ssl binaries.

PS: If you can wait a few days, 2.0.37 will hopefully be out and it has
some important bugs fixed. Just so you know.

Yes... compiling 2.0.36 with mod ssl is easy... which part of compiling
did you guys stocked? It should have the compile out/output text....
include in the email will help us to understand what happened and the
next time you probably can compile the future version of apache

Thanks Chris,

There is a summary of what we did on the original post to this thread...
any help is appreciated, thanks,

I'd like to take your money, however, a US citizen should only
fulfill such an order via snail mail to a physical US address (no PO
box).

For compiling help, I'd like to take your money for that too, but it
wouldn't seem right without offering a few tips first. If you then
feel compelled to pay me for the info, then by all means... :)

I achieved what you want by following the same instructions you read.
I did a _command-line_ build, using VS.net (60 day trial edition) on
a new laptop (256mb/DVD) running XP home. Did it on D drive just to
complicate things a bit. Transferred it to a dev server. Works great.

Install perl.
Unpack the apache source.
Put awk* in the apache source folder and make sure it has been renamed awk.exe
put the openssl source* in the proper place. -[apache source]\srclib\openssl
put the zlib source* in the proper place. -[apache source]\srclib\zlib
find vcvars32.bat and put a shortcut in your [apache source] and
[openssl] directories.
open a command prompt.
go to your openssl directory ([apache source]\srclib\openssl) and run
vcvars32.bat.
run commands to compile openssl*.
you can try a couple of openssl commands at the command prompt to
verify compilation.
go to your apache source directory (cd \[apache source]) and run vcvars32.bat.
run commands to compile apache via _command-line_*.

* refer to instructions here:


If you get a "can't find this or that" message, put a copy wherever
you need it.
Look in "Component Services -> Event Viewer" to see other error messages.

There are other issues with using openssl on Windows, but first things first.

HIH,

Steve Parrish

Re: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

Hello Steve,

Thanks for the offer, we now have binaries, supplied by a non-US person,
but still we have no luck... we can browse to http://localhost, but not
https://localhost.

We have temp certs in place and everything looks fine, but no go. The
guys working on this have done this 100 times on linux with no problems,
we are now into our 5th day of stuffing around and still no ssl.

Maybe you can give us some pointers? We are using the default configs as
given with apache but there must be something else that needs to be done
to get windows to work with the ssl?

John.

RE: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

I am using win32 of Apache 2.0.35/2.0.36 and I had many problems in the
beginning. It took me a week to get it work.

First can you show me your config now? Please do an attachement
Are you able to start apache with modssl but not yet have any virtual
host that with a sslengine on.

It is very hard to troubleshoot the situation with very limited
information and which point that modssl didn't work for you

We have discovered that if we start Apache from the console with

Assuming the win2k service for Apache is created
(else create one using sc command),
try configure the Apache service properties like this :

Path to executable:
"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\Apache.exe" --ntservice

Startup type:

AW: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

Hello List,

I'm also searching for an Win2k binary with SSL support. But it's not
possible for me to spend $500 for this. I would be very grateful if someone
can help me without money...

Thx

Re: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

Thanks everyone, we now have everything working fine.

A quick howto for beginners (who perhaps experience what we have
experienced):

If you want win2k + mod-ssl, don't trust the apache HOWTO at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/platform/win_compiling.html , they may
be fine for those who don't need ssl (and those people can simply use
the supplied binaries) but they are wrong if you need ssl.

Firstly, don't use the perl examples given on apache.org to prepare and
compile openssl, use the instructions in INSTALL.W32 that comes with the
openSSL source.

We eventually found that with visual C++ 6 we could compile apache
without ssl fine. Later we compiled mod-ssl alone (also in VC++) and
moved the mod-ssl.so binary to the modules folder in the apache
installation.

And that's it, except you need to know how to start Apache in "ssl
mode".

from the console in the apache\bin use

>apache -D SSL

to install apache to run as a service with SSL

>apache -i -D SSL

Hope this helps someone out there, and thanks to everyone who helped us!

John.

Thanks everyone, we now have everything working fine.

A quick howto for beginners (who perhaps experience what we have
experienced):

If you want win2k + mod-ssl, don't trust the apache HOWTO at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/platform/win_compiling.html , they may
be fine for those who don't need ssl (and those people can simply use
the supplied binaries) but they are wrong if you need ssl.

Firstly, don't use the perl examples given on apache.org to prepare and
compile openssl, use the instructions in INSTALL.W32 that comes with the
openSSL source.

We eventually found that with visual C++ 6 we could compile apache
without ssl fine. Later we compiled mod-ssl alone (also in VC++) and
moved the mod-ssl.so binary to the modules folder in the apache
installation.

And that's it, except you need to know how to start Apache in "ssl
mode".

from the console in the apache\bin use

>apache -D SSL

to install apache to run as a service with SSL

>apache -i -D SSL

Hope this helps someone out there, and thanks to everyone who helped us!

John.

Re: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

Most probably you haven´t add path to the ssl dll´s or lib inside VS, go to
tools\configure\directories and add the path to the include and bin folders
of your OpenSSL installation this should work just fine

Re: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

I've included the following libs with the results I soecified below.

kernel32.lib user32.lib wsock32.lib ws2_32.lib advapi32.lib gdi32.lib
ssleay32.lib libeay32.lib libapr.lib libaprutil.lib libhttpd.lib

I also included the directories with the openssl libraries. Same result.

Thanks; Phil

Re: 2.0.36 + mod-ssl + Win2k = Easy Money

I just recently built the 2.0.36 + ssl tree and had similar results.
Although the error messages were slightly different, the root cause
might be the same.

Turns out that several .c and .h files are delivered with dates earlier
than the .y and .l files they are built from. However, the .c and .h
files are actually up-to-date. So, by simply 'touching' (I used an
editor to add a blank line) to the .c and .h files to make their dates
more recent than their source files, and the system will not try to
build them again. (I thought that I read that this problem had been
corrected in the 2.0.36 tree, but apparently not).

Anyway, I also had to uninstall the bison utility (I did not have the
other required tools, lex, sed and yacc anyway) before this would
actually work. Having bison on my system, even with the modified file
dates, would still cause an error for some reason. Removing bison and
altering the file dates allowed the build to work as expected.

The files that you need to 'touch' are
ssl_expr_parse.c
ssl_expr_parse.h
ssl_expr_scan.c

Since you have run the make with errors, you will probably have to
reinstall these files from the distribution before running make again.
They might have been emptied as a result of your failed make.

Hope this helps

In the version of Apache that I have (2.0.36), the .c and .h files above
have later dates than the .y and .l files. Still, nmake tries to rebuild
them. I got around this by taking out the generation steps in mod_ssl.mak.
This works. I now have Apache 2.0..36 running on Win2K with ssl support.
Thanks to everyone on this thread for their suggestions and shared
experiences.
