Hi,

Is it a way to update virtual server certificates from API without restarting apache?

We created a script to update key and certificate for customers but it restart apache all the time and create downtime.

If someone has a solution, it will be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Fixed (pending)

A full Apache restart shouldn't happen, but the webserver does need to have it's config reloaded to pick up new certs.

Actually, I found cases where Apache is un-necessarily restarted. I'll fix that ..
