Installing Mod_Ssl Amazon Linux

installing mod_ssl amazon linux

Try this:

sudo yum install mod24_ssl

If you run into another incompatibility like this in the future, use yum search all. For example:

yum search all mod_ssl

Returns:

mod_ssl.x86_64 : SSL/TLS module for the Apache HTTP Server
mod24_ssl.x86_64 : SSL/TLS module for the Apache HTTP Server

mod_ssl vs mod24_ssl AWS

As @stdunbar said mod_ssl works with Apache 2.2 and mod24_ssl works with Apache 2.4.

We can see that the package descriptions are similar except for the Version:

We can see what each package depends on using yum deplist:

[ec2-user]$ yum deplist mod_ssl
Loaded plugins: priorities, update-motd, upgrade-helper
26 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
package: mod_ssl.x86_64 1:2.2.32-1.9.amzn1
  ... snip ...
  dependency: httpd = 2.2.32-1.9.amzn1
   provider: httpd.x86_64 2.2.32-1.9.amzn1
  ... snip ...

[ec2-user]$ yum deplist mod24_ssl
Loaded plugins: priorities, update-motd, upgrade-helper
26 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
package: mod24_ssl.x86_64 1:2.4.27-3.71.amzn1

   provider: httpd24.x86_64 2.4.27-3.71.amzn1
  ... snip ...

httpd and httpd24 conflict--you can't have both installed at the same time.

How to install mod_ssl for Apache httpd?

Are any other LoadModule commands referencing modules in the /usr/lib/httpd/modules folder? If so, you should be fine just adding LoadModule ssl_module /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_ssl.so to your conf file.

Otherwise, you'll want to copy the mod_ssl.so file to whatever directory the other modules are being loaded from and reference it there.

Please double check your settings. The mod24_ssl is only for Amazon Linux 1. The package name for Amazon Linux 2 is mod_ssl. Maybe you misspell it and use modssl instead?
