I am Getting error while installing SAS 9.4

httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 103 of C:/SAS/Config/Lev1/Web/WebServer/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load C:/Program Files/SASHome/SASWebServer/9.4/httpd-2.2/modules/mod_ssl.so into server: The specified module could not be found.

Hello @ashishj816,

have you configured HTTPS during the installation? Can you find this file /mod_ssl.so on the location mentioned on the server?

Hi JuanS_OCS,

I am configuring with HTTP only.

And the file mod_ssl.so is present at location.

Hello @ashishj816,

then, check permissions, please.

Note that you receive this message because your httpd.conf file includes this line:

LoadModule ssl_module   	 "C:/Program Files/SASHome/SASWebServer/9.4/httpd-2.2/modules/mod_ssl.so"

First of all, it should be commented if you are configuring http, secondly, even if it is there, if cannot be loaded is because it cannot be reached (or your disk is full).

However, an important suggestion/remark: you would never-ever want to install SAS binaries (SASHome), and even less to configure SAS (services) in the C (Operating System) drive. Reason is simple: imagine you fill the OS drive due to a non-OS reason (SAS), just once: all your server will go down and good luck recovering it.

Hi JuanS_OCS I found that the error was due to windows update was pending and after windows update the error got resolved.
