WampServer

I followed this setup for SSL: [www.expertcore.org]
However, after changing the configuration files mentioned. I attempted to enable the ssl module for apache, as it says, but it the server will not allow it as the "service has not started." I'm assuming there is an error in the configuration file setup. I'm using Wamp Server 2. Please help. I need to rectify this to continue my contracting jobs.

The link I posted has all of those steps. Originally, I followed the link you posted, then double checked it, then checked it against the link I posted. They are identical, and the steps are all completed in my configuration files.

Now you mentioned and I check the link and oh wow... that poster copied my guide almost exactly word by word
anyway, your issue is typo and solution posted in comments

Looked through the comments and double checked my configuration files. However, I'm still getting an error. I couldn't find any errors in the log files, so I ran httpd -t and got this:
Invalid command 'SSLPassPhraseDialog', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuation
The error is located in the httpd-ssl.conf file

Problem solved. You have to uncomment this line from httpd.conf in order to even have the module loaded and prepared to handle ssl in the first place.

LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so

I don't believe that was in your guide. If not, you may want to include it.

Im having same problem even after I uncomment "LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so"

Yfastud, after double checking both guides, and triple checking steps 40-45, I still do not see where in either guide was a mention to uncomment "loadmodule ssl in the httpd.conf.

The error that I get when I try to tick/check those modules in winamp is "COULD NOT EXECUTE MENU ITEM: iNTERNAL ERROR. EXCEPTION- cOULD NOT PERFORM SERVICE ACTION; THE SERVICE HAS NOT BEEN STARTED"

Any ideas why that may be happening?

Soon as I start wamp, its orange. When I try to put online, it gives same msg as above "could not execute menu item.

mistakes in your config files

Steve, thanks for pointing me in the right direction, but could you maybe give me a few specific places to check for those errors in my config file? In the meanwhile, I will double check a few guides til I hear back from you (or somebody)

Ok, bear with my noobness. I think this is where im goofing up something in my config files.

In the setup virtual host guide at step 4, it says NOTE: In case your ISP blocks default port 80, you can use association rule to setup URL without port attach to it and of course without the need to use port forward services such as no-ip. In this case, skip this page and use the altenate page or email us ;-)

What I have done (httpd-vhosts.conf here @ C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.6\conf\extra) is:

NameVirtualHost *:80 (do i suppose to replace 80 with 8080 since that is the port that I have forwarded?)

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.domain.com
ServerAlias domain.com domain
DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/domain
ErrorLog "C:/wamp/www/domain/logs/error.log"
CustomLog "C:/wamp/www/domain/logs/access.log" common
</VirtualHost>

Or was I suppose to skip this whole step since I forwarded port 8080 and just email you guys? And, if I am suppose to change 80 to port 8080, do I suppose to do this everywhere that I see "80" at?

Ok, narrowed it down. (httpd-vhosts.conf here @ C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.6\conf) When I uncomment the Virtual hosts line below
"#"Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf, thats when my wamp start bugging out and turns orange.

I also noticed another mistake I made, in the post above this one, that setup is based off if u have a domain (which i set up that way because I do plan to get one ONLY AFTER my wamp is working flawlessly, but for the meanwhile, I set it up using the alternative way.

Any idea's why when I uncomment the # sign it causes wamp to go orange?

Update: I don't have any clue what i did to fix my wamp, but its working now, I did have to restart from scratch (restored a backup) and tried changing those config files, line by line, and after each line, restart wamp to see if it was ok.

Hopefully I dont have to beg for more help anytime soon!
