Apache2 installation on Ubuntu 18.04 lts

Update your system to the latest using below mentioned commands.


sudo apt update

sudo apt upgrade



















Installing Apache 2 server


Once the system is updated with latest patches , we can install

Apache 2 software using  the following command 


sudo apt install apache2













Enabling the apache2 service


To check if the service is enabled


sudo systemctl is-enabled apache2.service


If not already enabled we can use the systemctl commmand 

as follows:


sudo systemctl enable apache2.service


Start/Stop/Restart commands for apache2 service:


sudo systemctl start apache2.service

sudo systemctl stop apache2.service

sudo systemctl restart apache2.service


To check the status of service:


sudo systemctl status apache2.service
















If you are using ufw firewall we need to open a few ports to access 

the apache server using following commands :


sudo ufw allow 80/tcp 

sudo ufw allow 443/tcp 


After opening the ports same can be verified as:


sudo ufw status














The last step after going through all this complete process would be to 

test the installation of apache 2 server .

We can do that using curl command as:



curl -I http://ip-address-of-the-server

For beginners , who haven’t worked on any unix/linux system , it takes time to adjust to the commands and syntax of terminals (The so called black screen).   Installation Overview To accomplish our task   we will   follow these three steps: 1.
