mod_ssl not compiling with apache2

Question

SOLVED

Resolved, but it was a strange issue. I check config.log, as suggested by Capsule and found the following line:

configure:14368: checking whether to enable mod_ssl
configure:16123: result: no

I was wondering why it wasn't installing ssl when I had clearly asked it to. Then I found the configuration command it had parsed in:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-so--enable-cgi--enable-info--enable-rewrite--enable-speling--enable-usertrack--enable-deflate --enable-ssl--enable-mime-magic

Notice the lack of spaces? I had entered the command with each directive in a new line so it was missing spaces, and the arguments were not being correctly passed.

And now it works as expected!

Apache build ( 2.2.1 ):

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache \
    --enable-so \
    --enable-cgi    \
    --enable-info   \
    --enable-rewrite    \
    --enable-speling    \
    --enable-usertrack  \
    --enable-deflate \
    --enable-ssl    \
    --enable-mime-magic

When I try to configure ssl, i get the following as I try to restart apache

Syntax error on line 56 of /usr/local/apache/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:
Invalid command 'SSLPassPhraseDialog', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

Here're the list of compiledin modules ( SSL is missing )

Check if ./configure doesn't yell about something missing when checking for openssl librairies. It probably didn't compile right, hence the module not listed.

You can also have a look at config.log
