Failed to enable Crypto Device

sistemas unix_1 — Tue, 15 Nov 2005 12:15:55 GMT

Hi there!

I'm trying to configure an Atalla AXL600 Crypto Card in a HP Proliant DL360, the server is an Apache/2.0.55 compiled with mod_ssl/2.0.55 and OpenSSL/0.9.7i.

All works OK, but when I enable the SSLCryptoDevice directive in the httpd.conf, the Apache server doesn't start. Cheking the error log of Apache, I get the next message:

[Tue Nov 15 11:59:34 2005] [error] Init: Failed to enable Crypto Device API `atalla'
[Tue Nov 15 11:59:34 2005] [error] SSL Library Error: 621174887 error:25066067:DSO support routines:func(102):reason(103)

Any ideas?

BTW, the Apache is chroot'ed

Thanks in advance

Greetings

PD: forgive my poor english :)

Did you copy the libraries for the crypto card to the chrooted environment?

Yeah, I created /jail/AtallaSem, devices atbxl0-atbxl7 in /jail/dev with mknod, binaries in /jail/sbin, copied the subdir /usr/src/AXL in /jail/usr/src/AXL... The Atalla Daemon seems to start right (as I see in the Atldmd.log)... I'm stuck....

Problem solved!

I've reinstalled and updated the firmware again of the Atalla AXL600 and the card seems ok, but I realized that there was some files missing in the chrooted environment.

After copying these files, all works fine.

PD: You can check the files needed in the /sbin/atbxl_uninstall script and by doing a ldd /sbin/atldmd.
