Well, there you go. Do exactly what it says: start. The 'gracefull'
argument tells apachectl to *restart* gracefully. Try `apachectl start`
Once you do that, see what the output is. That should put you on the
right track.

This has nothing to do with being a linux newbie. In fact, it has little
to do with linux at all. This is a php mailing list. It seems that you
are having trouble with apache, and you seem to think it has to do with
php. I still have not seen anything that would indicate that php has
anything to do with apache not starting. From what you indicate above,
it seems that the problem is that you do not know *how* to start apache.
Here is what I suggest you do:
1.) Read the documentation for installing PHP.
2.) Read the apachectl man page.
3.) Read this: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Good luck ;-)
