So it couldn't load the binary.

How did you search for it? 
The simplest way to find the binaries associated with a package is:

dpkg -L <package> | grep bin

so, 
dpkg -L apache | grep bin
/usr/sbin
/usr/sbin/apache
/usr/sbin/apacheconfig
/usr/sbin/apachectl
/usr/lib/cgi-bin

Check the logfiles (/var/log/apache or /var/log/httpd) and see what they
say. They ought to be able to explain why Apache isn't starting up.
