Invalid command “SSLEngine”, perhaps misspelled OR defined by a module not included.
Posted by Category: Linux AdministrationWe install a SSL certificate on a domain to secure the transaction carried out on a website but sometimes we receive an error message
“Invalid command “SSLEngine”, perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration”
while browsing the website. The error message indicates that the module mod_ssl required to run SSL engine on a CentOS server is missing and needs to be installed.
Install the mod_ssl module using yum
#yum install mod_ssl
Once it is installed, make sure to restart the Apache service
#service httpd restart
You should now be able to browse the website using https.
