What the script does here is determine the PREFIX by examining the full
path of the script. Unfortunately it does this by taking the called
script name $0, so if you call it as './apache.sh' the full path is not
available. Try manually setting the PREFIX in the script (most likely
/usr/local) or call the script by the full pathname (like the system
does at startup).
