Apache start problem

Hi,

I have installed apache webserver on my solaris 10(x86). When I tried to start the server it gives following error,

ld.so.1: /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd: fatal: libssl.so.0.9.8: open failed: No such file or directory
Killedld.so.1:: Too many arguments

Can somebody please guide me how should I solve this problem.

Thanks.
Mahesh

Does libssl.so.0.9.8 definitely exist on your system?

find / -name "libssl.so.0.9.8" -print

If it doesn't exist, then there's your problem, install the appropriate package.

If it does exist, chances are it's in a non standard path (maybe /usr/local/ssl/lib)

Run the following (assuming you found the library in /usr/local/ssl/lib - change as appropriate)

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/ssl/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Then try to start apache again.

If that works, read man crle for details on how to make this permanent.

Cheers
