Two schools of thought. One, if you are only testing, bring up the services property page of the apache service and put -D SSL in the options box next to the start button and click start. Good for one startup only. Two, in the apache root directory, bin\apache -k config -D SSL changes (configures) the startup arguments. That's permanant.
