Is there a problem with my mongrel clusters that openssl is not starting  
or do you think it’s the other way around? (that my openssl is missing,  
so the server won’t start?)

and log/mongrel.log for info.

PS in case it’s relevant, i’m using the ‘poor man’s method’ to load  
balancing (using apache 2.0 with reverse proxy, instead of 2.2)

Hope someone can lend a hand…

`gem\_original\_require’: no such file to load – openssl

This line tells me that you don’t have OpenSSL Ruby bindings
