   Chances are you missed a directory definition that has "Options Indexes" in it.  Like:

<Directory /var/lib/apache/htdocs>
   Options Indexes
</Directory>

<DirectoryMatch ~/public_html>
   Options Indexes
</Directory>

   You will need to remove the Indexes from the Options line. (and restart apache)

BTW: the graceful thing had nothing to do with this change, but only how apache is stopped.
