+<p>This particular <directive>SSLStaplingCache</directive> directive requires
+<module>mod_socache_shmcb</module> (from the <code>shmcb</code> prefix on the
+directive's argument).  This module is usually enabled already for

+<module>mod_ssl</module>.  If you enabled an SSL session cache using a 
+mechanism other than <module>mod_socache_shmcb</module>, use that alternative
+mechanism for <directive>SSLStaplingCache</directive> as well.  For example:</p>

+    <highlight language="config">
+SSLSessionCache "dbm:logs/ssl_scache"
+SSLStaplingCache "dbm:logs/ssl_stapling"
