Title:
This is something that it should not to do. After the pass phrase, it should pop "OK" up and pass to root log in without stuck. It looks like it's not able to read the httpd.conf file or something is wrong on it. It's likely that the daemon will not start even if you try manually. As previously wrote an other friend, try manually with:
 
1) cp /dev/null   error_log (this will clean error_log);
2) cp /dev/null   access_log (this will clean access_log);
3) start apachectl startssl;
4) check with ps -aux whether the daemon starts or not;
5) check the error_log for errors.
 
Regarding the other e-mail with your log file (ssl_engine_log), something is missing.
I have Mod_ssl 2.6.3 but I bet that is almost the same this sequence. After:

[28/Sep/2000 11:22:53 03442] [info] Init: Wiped out the queried pass phrases from

memory

SSL  should generate RSA private keys and configuring DH parameters. It could be that you have made some mistakes generating your temporary keys. Check with "ca" if you are able to read it and they are corrects. In doubt, generate a new pair.
 
I hope this helps.

Please read previous messages...I have given you just about everything
that I have as far as details.  The biggest thing that I noticed (which
is stated in a previous message), when I start the server...it asks me
for my passphrase...I type in my pass phrase and then is says OK...then
it just hangs.  It doesn't take me back to a prompt and I have to
control C to get back to the prompt.  When I check whether or not the
server process had been started (ps -aux)...nothing is there.  I think
this is the source of the problem, but I don't know how to fix it.
