Apache running.

I installed into a specific directory, /usr/local/apache to be exact.

Everything was working fine, and then I shutdown my machine for some time, and booted it up. Now when I try to restart, or start apache by apachectl start (or restart), I get an error:

The program 'apachectl' is currently not installed. You can install
it by typing:
apt-get install apache
Make sure you have the 'universe' component enabled
bash: apachectl: command not found

What does this mean, and is there a way to prevent this from happening. I got this message on previous installation of apache before but just ignore it cause I was reinstalling Linux and ways.

Thanks in advance
 
Are you running Linux, BSD, or Solaris?

It looks like your the Apache init script requires an absolute path to the apachectl.
