I did the same process a while ago and it worked for me. Only I'm at work right now and I can't access the details of what I did, because they are on my machine at home... however, keep reading:
It may be that after "Starting httpd:" apache is expecting a passphrase for the SSL certificate. You can then enter that directly yourself or there is a conf command which can run a script to input the passphrase (which, again, I can't remember exact details of.) When I get home I'll remid myself of how to do it.
