Problem with a new installation

Hi
After months of waiting for Redhat to come out with up to date rpms, I
decided to compile a working OpenSSL/ MySQL / PHP / httpd installation for
myself.

Installed the latest versions of mcrypt and mhash, followed by openssl and
mysql (version 4.0.13) - all from source.

Configured httpd with :

./configure --enable-so --enable-cgi --enable-vhost-alias --enable-suexec
--enable-info --enable-ssl --enable-cgid --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl

Then compiled PHP as :

./configure --with-mcrypt=/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt
--with-mhash=/usr/local/lib/libmhash/ --prefix=/usr/local/php
--with-apache2=../../apache/httpd-2.0.47 --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
--with-config-file-path=/etc --with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d
--localstatedir=/var --mandir=/usr/share/man
--sysconfdir=/etc --infodir=/usr/local/php/share/info
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --enable-mbstring --with-gettext
--with-zlib --with-gd --enable-discard-path --enable-ftp --with-curl
--with-pear --with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir
--enable-force-cgi-redirect --enable-debugger --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl/


Now after going through some configuration, I find that I cannot seem to
browse any SSL (https) links on a website that I was developing (which
worked perfectly with what I had earlier). I know this is probably not
enough info for you to help me, but since I did this for the first time, I
am not sure what is relevant to my problems and what is not. Could anyone
help me set things up ? Feel free to ask for configuration files and the
like.

Thanks,

MS
