Setting up SSL on Apache

I am running Apache on FreeBSD 4.3. I installed openssl... and I was following a tutorial to enable a secure virtual host site, like https://www.securesite.com
I try adding the following lines to the httpd.conf file

SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ca.crt/server.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ca.key/server.key
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/logs/ssl_request_log \

but when I try to restart apache, it gives me an error... saying that SSLEngine on is misspelled...

I use a vhost.list file to separately hold the information for the v hosts.

I've gone through the whole step of creating and signing the certs.

>> saying that SSLEngine on is misspelled

1) LoadModule/AddModule was missing or comment out.

2) You compiled mod_ssl incorrectly and therefore Apache doesn't know what to do with SSLEngine directive.

You happen to be the only FreeBSD user out there who doesn't follow FreeBSD consistent directory layout rule. Specifically, using PREFIX of /usr/local/apache is extremely bad. FreeBSD is not for you if you continue to install software to non-standard location.
