On Debian and Debian-derived distros, it's "apache2ctl". Most others simply use "apachectl".

Where am I screwing things up now?

While that is the right place to make sure your changes aren't overwritten, you might not have had it added to the Apache running copy.

Make sure that's also present in the Apache copy of the file.
