I can start apache manually but my installled apache.sh wont start it 
it pukes on

laptop# ./apache.sh
./apache.sh: Cannot determine the PREFIX
laptop#


here is the apache.sh file that was installed using the ports.
I suspect its something in that "\(/.*\)/etc mess but i am not a scripter and
have no idea what to put in there or take out for that matter...





laptop# cat apache.sh
#!/bin/sh

if ! PREFIX=$(expr $0 : "\(/.*\)/etc/rc\.d/$(basename $0)\$"); then
    echo "$0: Cannot determine the PREFIX" >&2
    exit 1
fi

case "$1" in
start)
        [ -x ${PREFIX}/sbin/apachectl ] && ${PREFIX}/sbin/apachectl start > /dev
/null && echo -n ' apache'
        ;;
stop)
        [ -r /var/run/httpd.pid ] && ${PREFIX}/sbin/apachectl stop > /dev/null &
& echo -n ' apache'
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: `basename $0` {start|stop}" >&2
        ;;
esac

exit 0
