Seems you missed an important fact: APACI is the Apache Autoconf-style
Interface, which means is resembles GNU Autoconf's configure scripts. And one
of their intended features are that they are 100% batch interfaces. When you
want an interactive interface then just don't use APACI. Then your way is the
old Apache 1.2 configuration procedure where you edit src/Configuration. But
you CONNECT use both at the same time, sorry. Read the INSTALL file for
details.
But this whole discussion now has nothing more to do with mod_ssl, so please
let us stop discussing it here on this forum. Read the INSTALL file
_carefully_ and when you have problems then use the Apache BugDB or contact me
directly. Thanks.
BTW, please don't send mails to sw-mod-ssl _AND_ bugdb-mod-ssl. Instead when
you reply via mail send it _ONLY_ to bugdb-mod-ssl. Jitterbug (the
software driving mod_ssl's BugDB) automatically sends a carbon copy to
sw-mod-ssl.
