There is more than one way to do it. Open up a shell and type:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache start

Familiarise yourself with shell operations and things become ... easier.

It's actually apache2, according to
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/i386/apache2.2-common/filelist.
Equivalently, sudo service apache2 start will do the same thing, is
probably more intuitive for someone unfamiliar with a Unix shell to
remember, and is compatible with both sysvinit and Upstart scripts.

Couldn't agree more on this point.

[SLUG] Starting Apache on Ubuntu 10.10

2010-12-26 Thread Chris Allen
On Ubuntu 10.10, I have started to learn PHP MySQL and XHTML (et al) 
with the aid of a book from Wrox.
The import package to install is lamp, a combined package of 
everything I need including the apache web server.


The installs appears to have gone well.  The next step is starting apache.
The book says I can do this form the menu under System  Administration 
 Services
Unfortunately I cannot find Services in any of the menus.  nor Can I 
see it listed a standard option in the Menu maintenance tool.


Can any one advise how to resolve this issue?

Chris Allen

PS
I'm pretty sure I remember seeing Services as a menu option in earlier 
versions of Ubuntu
