Hi,

Passing SIGUSR1 will wait for current requests to be
processed before doin' a restart.

Subject: Code update to handle apache dynamic configuration updates to
httpd.conf.


Hi All,

My requirement is adding/configuring ssl virtual hosts dynamically to
apache web server at runtime without apache restart.

Details:
I need to handle multiple virtual hosts ( IP based virtual host
configuration) with ssl support for each virtual host.
Each virtual host has its own certificates and key (maintained in
files).
And I need to generate fresh keys and certificates and update these
certificates for a particular virtual host at runtime. I am able to do
this change in httpd.conf. This updates take into effect only after I
restart the apache.

But my requirement is that I shouln't restart the apache web server
while updating the certificates. As there are many other requests to
other virtual hosts are being processed.

1) So would like to know is there any way where I can make apache read
the cirticates details freshly without restart of apache.
2) Is there any configuration which would make re-read of the
httpd.conf.

Note: I am open to fallow other methods of storing keys and
certificates.
e.g storing LDAP if needed.

Pls let me know what source code updates would help me to get to this
functionality.

Pls reply back ASAP.

Thanks & Regards,
Prathama.
