freebsd# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 start
Performing sanity check on apache22 configuration:

Server Setting:

what problem?

Look in the /var/log/messages and /var/log/http-error.log logfiles for clues.

Also, sockstat -4 is correct way to see if port is opened or not by apache.

sockstat -4 
sockstat -4 | grep :80

Or: % pgrep httpd

top only shows top CPU consumers by default.

Look in the /var/log/messages and /var/log/http-error.log logfiles for clues.

/var/log/http-error.log:

how to fix?

Change your hostname to something fully-qualified, like freebsd.domain.local in /etc/hosts and/or in rc.conf.
