Apply this patch to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache2.sh:

% diff -u apache2.sh.orig apache2.sh 
--- apache2.sh.orig     Sun Apr  4 12:20:39 2004
+++ apache2.sh  Sun Apr  4 12:20:54 2004

 start)
-       [ "ssl" = "ssl" -a -f "$PREFIX/etc/apache2/ssl.crt/server.crt" ] && SSL=ssl
+       SSL=ssl
        [ -x ${PREFIX}/sbin/apachectl ] && ${PREFIX}/sbin/apachectl start${SSL} > /dev/null && echo -n ' apache2'
        ;;
 stop)


which just stops the port trying to be clever about autodetecting if
SSL support is needed, and starts apache up with startssl every time.

	Cheers,
