Bug reassigned from package `apache2-commonversion: 2.0.54-5sarge1package: apache2.2-commonversion: 2.2.3-4in the logrotate config file for apache (/etc/logrotate.d/apache2), the "restart" command is used to tell apache to use the new logfiles after they have been rotated. this is kind of harsh since it's a full stop & start of the server. it also causes problems for people using ssl certificates for which the key is encrypted, and thus needs a passphrase to be typed in everytime apache starts.here's the relevant part of /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 :        postrotate                if [ -f /var/run/apache2.pid ]; then                        /etc/init.d/apache2 restart > /dev/null                fi         endscriptmay i suggest that "restart" be changed for "reload", which has the same effect regarding logfile rotation, does not require the passphrase to be re-entered, and is less harsh overall.        postrotate                if [ -f /var/run/apache2.pid ]; then                        /etc/init.d/apache2 reload > /dev/null                fi        endscript' to `apache2-common'.
