So if like me you want to know how to disable session tickets in Apache httpd, you need to be running at least httpd 2.4.8 with OpenSSL 1.0.2. Then you can set:

  SSLOpenSSLConfCmd Options -SessionTicket
Alternatively, if you're running at least httpd 2.4.11 with OpenSSL 0.9.8f, you can set this instead:

  SSLSessionTickets off

Also, if you're running RHEL/CentOS 7, you'll want to switch to the SCL version of Apache httpd (2.4.25) as the version in the base repositories (2.4.6) is too old to support either setting:

Well, technically RHEL7 runs httpd-2.4.6-67, which is RedHat's 67th patched version of 2.4.6.

They backport a lot of stuff from later versions, don't see why they could not have done this (they haven't, I checked).
