Even more wierdness, the "other" log shows it serving up the front page
image to all accesses right now. Why can't I see it with a browser?

It means you ran "apache2" or "httpd" instead of the startup script
(apachectl) or service/systemctl your system expects
Or you've removed variables like APACHE_RUN_DIR from wherever your
distro keeps the environment variables.

I haven't removed anything myself, but synaptic may have.. This is as it
was rebooted 9 something days ago. Some of the directories have a nov 3
date, but the files range from 2012 to 2019 since touched according to
mc. This is a very old but kept uptodate debian stretch install that is
about to get bullseye installed by switching out the /dev/sda drive for
a fresh SSD with a 2 Tbyte raid10 as /home. I think systemctl starts it
normally but I don't have that critter figured out yet. And when I do
issue a gracefull restart as sudo,

/lib/systemd/system/apache2.service gracefull
-bash: /lib/systemd/system/apache2.service: Permission denied

its not executable
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 346 Oct 13 2019 apache2.service

Now what? And thanks.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.

But on the other hand, the script in /etc/init.d does work, no errors or
warnings logged but doesn't fix the problem when it does restart the
server. So I'm clueless.

And I have a friend in oregon I'm going to send a link to to see if he
can pull a realtime kernel for an rpi4b that I've built, and see if he
can get it.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.

Files in /lib/system are part of systemd you need to use systemctl to start these services.

systemctl start apache2

The system unit file /lib/systemd/system/apache2.service indicates that the installed version of apache no longer uses sys Vinit scripts. So it is expected that these no longer work on your system.

https://wiki.debian.org/systemd has a lot of information that will be useful to you.
If you're used to working with sys Vinit scripts and the system has been updated to uses system you will need to update your procedures.

Not sure how this is relevant to starting httpd.
