I am trying to learn a bit about the terminal and servers. I am following a course and in this course it states that you can start and stop the server apache (on mac) by using the command:
sudo apachectl start But, when I do this, it comes back with a message saying that apache is already functioning. The full message:
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist: service already loaded Apache is clearly not running though:
ps aux | grep httpd doesn't return any activity.
I expect this is something to do with the fact that the course I am following is for Yosemite and I am running El Capitan. I don't know much about the issue and I am trying to learn, but I can't even follow the course if I can't even start the server.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
P

Try
apachectl status This is probably the best way to check the status of Apache.

Can you try the below
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist sudo apachectl stop sudo apachectl start
