Error installing apache

I've installed apache server following all the instructions witch accuracy, but i can't start the server.

I extraxt the files
Configure to /usr/local/apache
make
make install

But when I want to /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start

I can't

There are a lot of files in the bin folder but it seems to not work. httpdoc isn't a folder... I don't know, maybe the installation was unsuccessful

Any Idea????

i finally found that I must execute the next line to run/stop the server

bash apachectl start
bash apachectl stop

I tried to use

chmod 755 apachectl

but isn't working, anyone knows the reason?

Thanks!

Look in /usr/local/apache/logs to see what the problem is.

I finally fixed apache, nw the problem is php, XD

I can't run it, and i don't know why

Thanks
