Sounds like you hit the return/exit problem that was fixed recently
in OpenPKG. Grab a more recent package, i.e. CURRENT [1] >= 20050228
or RELEASE [2] >= 2.3.1. There are no plans to merge this into older
releases. Be aware that there are few, if any, problems when mixing
packages within 2.x releases but be prepared for more problems when
mixing 1.x and 2.x OpenPKG releases.

The fix described is in a code path that should lead to printing an
error message when the start of apache fails. After fixing this "error
printing" problem you are not finished but will actually be able to
troubleshoot the original problem.
