Re: apache segfaults on startup after specifying the certificate file and key

You will have better luck on the apache mailing lists (
http://httpd.apache.org) as mod_ssl on this website, as told on modssl.org,
is only for apache 1.x. As of 2.x modssl is incorporated into the apache
distribution and is also maintained by the apache http server project.
