Thruk and SSL

[Thibault Janvier]

Hi list,

I configure Thruk for the first time and try to use it in SSL.

os : linux rhe6

apache version : httpd-2.2.15-28.el6_4.x86_64

thruk version : thruk-1.78-1.el6.x86_64

openssl version : openssl-1.0.0-27.el6_4.2.x86_64

If I understood well, I have to :

- create certificate and key with openssl

- activate the mode SSL of Apache

- modify the file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (Listen 443 / LoadModule ssl_module... / VirtualHost)

- restart apache and thruk

The problem is that the SSL module mod_ssl.so necessary is not present on my server.

I download this missing module (mod_ssl-2.8.30-1.3.39).
When I try to install this module, it looks for files Apache in /etc/apache2/... and not /etc/httpd/... Consequently, it doesn't work.

...

I really think that there is an easier procedure (modification of thruk files for example) ! But I found nothing on the website of thruk...
Somebody can tell me if I am in the right direction (modification of Apache) or if there is a faster way to put Thruk in HTTPS ?

Thank you for your help !

Hi,

Apparently, your problem is not with Thruk but with your installation of mod_ssl in Apache.

Are you trying to install mod_ssl from the source or with yum/rpm ?

If you're using the source tarball, you need to compile mod_ssl with the correct parameters. It seems the default compile options are not for RedHat.

Else, try with yum, and i think it will be fine.

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for your answer.

I have resolved the problem this morning with installation of the RPM : mod_ssl-2.2.15-28.el6_4.x86_64.rpm.

(my apache installed is : httpd-2.2.15-28.el6_4.x86_64)

I have found it on the website http://rpm.pbone.net/ week and now it works fine.

Thanks again.
