[Bug 582963] [NEW] SSL pass phrase dialog can't read input

[cdenley]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apache2

When you configure apache to use a password-protected SSL key, you are
prompted to provide that password when apache starts. The PID file has
not been written at this point, so the init script won't work properly
until the password is provided or apache is killed manually. In ubuntu
10.04, when apache is started by upstart, it cannot read input from the
the console. You must login, kill it manually, then start apache. I was
able to workaround the problem using by adding "stty sane" to
/etc/init.d/apache2.

sed -e '/^ENV=/i stty sane' /etc/init.d/apache2|sudo tee
/etc/init.d/apache2
