[Bug 66525] New: document when certificate/key/CRL/etc. files are reloaded
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66525

Bug ID: 66525
Summary: document when certificate/key/CRL/etc. files are
reloaded
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.4.54
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: mod_ssl
Assignee: bugs@httpd.apache.org
Reporter: calestyo@scientia.org
Target Milestone: ---

Hey.

AFAICS, neither mod_ssl's documentation nor stopping.html really describes
under which conditions certificate/key/CRL/etc. files are reloaded.

Since those are typically regularly exchanged, this information should be quite
valuable.

It seems that httpd does *not* automatically detect exchanged files (via
fnotify or so) or periodically reload those files... it *does* however seem
that a graceful restart causes them to be reloaded (despite some claims in
various websites/stackoverflow topics that deal with that question).

Would be nice if some information could be added.

Cheers,
Chris.
