Enable TLSv1.2 in apache 2.2.22

Question

I need to update apache 2.2.22 to support TLSv1.2. I have tried the below command but it is not working

SSLProtocol +TLSv1.2 +TLSv1.1 +TLSv1

But when I put this command it displays an error in windows event viewer

SSLProtocol: Illegal protocol 'TLSv1.2'

Solution 1

Support for TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 was added in httpd 2.2.23. You will need to upgrade httpd itself, and also have OpenSSL 1.0.1 available at build-time and at run-time.

Solution 2

TLS for Apache is provided by OpenSSL. If TLS 1.2 is supported in your installation depends on the installed OpenSSL version, see About TLS 1.2 support in openssl.

Judging from the changelog, you will need at least OpenSSL 1.0.1.

Stack Overflow is a site for programming and development questions. This question appears to be off-topic because it is not about programming or development. See What topics can I ask about here in the Help Center. Perhaps Super User or Unix & Linux Stack Exchange would be a better place to ask. Also see Where do I post questions about Dev Ops?.

This is incorrect. Apache httpd 2.4 is not required to use TLSv1.1 and higher, nor is it required to use OpenSSL 1.0.1 and higher.
