            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.
