Step 4: Test Install Apache Web Server on Ubuntu

Step 5: Manage the Apache services

Now that you have your web server up and running, let’s review some basic management commands using systemctl.

To stop your web server, run:

To stop your web server, run:

$ sudo systemctl stop apache2

To start the web server when it is stopped, run:

$ sudo systemctl start apache2

To stop and then start the service again, run:

$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

If you are simply making configuration changes, Apache can often reload without dropping connections. To do this, use the following command:

$ sudo systemctl reload apache2

By default, Apache is configured to start automatically when the server boots. If this is not what you want, disable this behavior by running:

$ sudo systemctl disable apache2

To re-enable the service to start up at boot, run:

$ sudo systemctl enable apache2

To Check Apache Status :

$ sudo systemctl status apache2

Step 6: Apache configuration file

Now that you know how to manage the Apache service itself, you should take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with a few important directories and files.

(1). /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
(2). /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
(3). /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
(4). /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
