Sounds like your server key is encrypted (ie, Apache is waiting for you to enter a passphrase upon startup) and your init.d script doesn't understand how to provide such a passphrase.  You could decrypt your server key (remove the passphrase) or hack the init.d script to have it provide the passphrase to Apache, among other alternatives.  See http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.6/ssl_faq.html#ToC31 for details.

I just install openssl-0.9.5a-1.i586.rpm and  mod_ssl-2.6.4-1.i386.rpm  under apache-1.3.12-2.i386.rpm,
but there is no apachectl file (unlike in installation manual)
so to up the apache server, I use /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start (is it right ?)

and I have a trouble when starting the apache server after I create and install CACertificate and Server Certificate,
when I start the apache server, using this command :
 /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start
the status will stop for a long time
starting httpd
and the text  [ Ok ] never be show up.

anyone can help me ?
thanx
