Apache Server 2.4 with mod_jk 1.3.7 not working for ssl (https)

Error 1:

The Apache service named reported the following error:

SSLSessionCache: 'shmcb' session cache not supported (known names: ). Maybe you need to load the appropriate socache module (mod_socache_shmcb?).

Error 2:

Faulting application name: httpd.exe, version: 2.4.4.0, time stamp: 0x512fec36 Faulting module name: mod_jk.so, version: 1.2.37.0, time stamp: 0x4fc48072 Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x000000000000752d Faulting process id: 0x3580 Faulting application start time: 0x01cee6d2be493d71 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.4\bin\httpd.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.4\modules\mod_jk.so Report Id: f8d090fa-52c6-11e3-bce9-e4d53d737212

In Apache2.2 following line is uncommented in apache/conf/httpd.conf by default.

LoadModule socache_shmcb_module modules/mod_socache_shmcb.so

From Apache 2.4 above line is commented so remove the # sign before it.

This should work.
