Moodle Error: Networking requires the OpenSSL

I know this isn't an issue with your software directly, but have you seen this error before? Can't configure Moodle Networking...

I've searched the Moodle forum, Google, etc. and talked to JustHost tech support. Nothing so far.

Hosting Provider: JustHost
Linux web27.justhost.com 2.6.31-grsec #1 SMP Thu Nov 26 09:41:07 CST 2009 i686
Moodle 1.9.7+ (Build: 20100113)
PHP Version 5.2.11 - '--with-xmlrpc' loaded
cURL support enabled
cURL information: libcurl/7.19.5 OpenSSL/0.9.8b zlib/1.2.3 libidn/0.6.5
Confirmed with tech support - OpenSSL running on port 443 & not using Solaris 10

Am I missing something? It appears that OpenSSL is running but somehow Moodle isn't finding it.

Thanks

Hi. I am sorry but I never saw those errors. I never had any problems activating networking.

But, looking at the code it sure seems like it can't find SSL:
if (!extension_loaded('openssl')) {
admin_externalpage_print_header();
set_config('mnet_dispatcher_mode', 'off');
print_error('requiresopenssl', 'mnet', '', NULL, true);
}

To re-confirm that SSL in installed, you can create a info.php page like this:
<? phpinfo () ?>

And see what it says about SSL.

Regards,
Antonio

Fixed - see Moodle.org info here...

JustHost does not load OpenSSL unless you request them to...
