Isn't mod_ssl bundled with Apache 2.x already?

What do you mean by the mod_ssl patch?

I am not sure mod_ssl is bunlded with Apache 2.x or not. Actually the mod_ssl patch meant that the correspondent ID of mod_ssl (v2.x.x) for Apache v2.0.49.

For example www.modssl.org, the latest version is mod_ssl 2.8.25 for Apache 1.3.34.

Apache 2.x distribution (source distribution, at least) already contains mod_ssl. You don't need to install any external packages to enable any SSL functionality. There is an --enable-ssl configure switch for that.

But how do we ensure that the proper mod_ssl already contains in Apache v2.X? In fact I have found the statement from my application installation document its said that "mod_ssl must be compiled and the server certificates
must be created."
Where can I configure the "enable-ssl"? It is in <server_root>/apache/conf/httpd.conf??

--enable-ssl is a ./configure switch, not an Apache configuration directive.

You get the Apache 2.x sources you need to run ./configure, right? Just append the "--enable-ssl" switch at the end, together with other options you require. If you have the prerequisites met (e.g. Openssl installed) it will be installed.

It also generates some needed Apache SSL configuration for you in the config files but you should review them before actual use. You need to separately generate certificates and keys but if you had experience with Apache 1.3 + mod_ssl the procedures is largely the same. You should look at the Apache documentation for details.
