Hi,
I am trying to compile Apache 2.4.1 with openssl 1.0.1 on Linux 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64.
Following is the last block of the 'make' command of apache.
make[4]: Entering directory `/root/shishir/httpd-2.4.1/modules/ssl'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[4]: *** [mod_ssl.la] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory `/root/shishir/httpd-2.4.1/modules/ssl'
Please note, make test for openssl came successful.
Please suggest what can be wrong while reading libssl.a?
Thanks,
Shishir
