/usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian.gz: Apache2 Configuration under Debian GNU/Linux ============================================ (...) Please be aware that this layout is quite different from the standard Apache configuration. Due to the use of environment variables, apache2 needs to be started/stopped with '/etc/init.d/apache2', apachectl, or apache2ctl. Calling '/usr/bin/apache2' directly will not work with the default configuration. To call apache2 with specific command line arguments, just call apache2ctl with the same arguments. I guess both of your problems vanish after you use apache2ctl instead. Peter
