Syntax OK

To grep “ssl_module” execute the below command;

#grep ssl_module -rI /etc/httpd/*
conf/httpd.conf:LoadModule ssl_module /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_ssl.so

conf.d/ssl.conf:LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so

Here you can see two files with grep where ssl_module is defined.

You need to load all the required modules in one place /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file. To do so, remove or comment out it from /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf file.

#vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf

#LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so

Now commend out ssl_module, and exit after saving the file.

Next, run the syntax checks command and check to see if there is any warning.

#httpd -t
Syntax OK

#service httpd restart
