Here is the journalctl -xn. I can't seem to find any information on it.

It's because you have a SSL key with a passphrase, like the output clearly says. You can't run apache from startup because you are required to enter the passphrase manually before continuing.
Either use an ssl key without a passphrase, or configure mod_ssl to enter the passphrase automatically, in which case you need to set the:
SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:to point to a file containing the right passphrase.
Or, launch apache yourself from a terminal after the system has booted up, then it should ask for the passphrase.

I was running it from shell - and it never reached the passphrase dialog prompt. Removed the password from the key and everything worked but still...

Okay that's a bit weird, it really should prompt you.
If you still want to fix this, what exactly do you have in the
SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:line in mod_ssl?
