Hi

My guess is that either mod_ssl is not installed for apache or it is
installed but the configuration lines for mod_ssl are commented out in
httpd.conf (like it was on suse9 for me). apxs will only enable ssl
functions in php if mod_ssl is up and running

So check mod_ssl is available + enabled in apache then try recompiling
php with

./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-mysql --enable-ssl
