How can I start Apache without using OpenRC or Systemd?

On my backup computer I have multiple Gentoo root partitions that allow me to test drive multiple configurations. Partition /dev/sda6 is the root partition for normal desktop mode. Partition /dev/sda7 is a partition that simulates a co-lo box that does not have X.

The reason I want to start Apache without Open RC or Systemd is that, I would like the ability to boot into Desktop mode then chroot into server mode to run Apache. This would give me the ability to run Apache two ways from a simulated server boot and chroot mode. In chroot mode I will have access to all the software in the desktop partition. Booting in server-simulation mode will allow me a dress-rehearsal before pushing changes to the co-lo box (One do not currently have).

When I boot into server mode, I can start Apache using OpenRC, then use command "ps ax", to see what OpenRC did i get ...

Code:
/usr/sbin/apache2 -D DEFAULT_VHOST -D INFO -D SSL -D SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST -D LANGUAGE -D PHP -d /usr/lib/apache2 -f /etc/apache2/httpd.conf -k start


However, even in server mode issuing that command will not start Apache. Instead I get the following ...

Code:
root@srv-merganser ~ # /usr/sbin/apache2 -D DEFAULT_VHOST -D INFO -D SSL -D SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST -D LANGUAGE -D PHP -d /usr/lib/apache2 -f /etc/apache2/httpd.conf -k start &

root@srv-merganser ~ # AH00526: Syntax error on line 60 of /etc/apache2/modules.d/40_mod_ssl.conf:
Invalid Mutex directory in argument file:/run/apache_ssl_mutex


Any idea what I should try next?

Well, this says there is an issue with the configurations for apache; so figure out what is wrong with that and fix that...
Since, you didn't say what version of apache nor do we know the contents of that file; we are limited on what we can help with.

One thing I noticed according to apache docs for updating from 2.2 to 2.4
Quote:
Directives AcceptMutex, LockFile, RewriteLock, SSLMutex, SSLStaplingMutex, and WatchdogMutexPath have been replaced with a single Mutex directive. You will need to evaluate any use of these removed directives in your 2.2 configuration to determine if they can just be deleted or will need to be replaced using Mutex.


Apache: mutex directive
