Starting of Apache on reboot (apachectl startssl ?)

External Since: Dec 06, 2003 Posts: 18

Is there a script to start apache on a sys reboot, and what about a
secured server? How does one handle the challenge passwd input - leaving
it exposed in ASCII plain text in the script?

Linux: create the appropriate entries under /etc/rc.d/ (they should already
exist anyway).

Windows as service: Configure service as "automatic"

Windows as app: you can probably put a shortcut in Startup folder

I had that problem. In the end, I created an unencrypted version of the private key:

openssl rsa -in encrypted.key -out unencrypted.key
