  • What command did you run to start the server?

  • $/etc/init.d/httpd start

  • Ah, current versions of Ubuntu use systemd and the start command is sudo systemctl start apache2.service and for earlier versions using upstart the command is sudo service apache2 start. Ubuntu hasn't used /etc/init.d/ for starting services for quite a while now.
