- your ping indicates the reachability/responsiveness of the
host, it says nothing about a specific service.
- that you got a "404" indicates that the httpd service is
running/responding.
- the "404" is indicating that the file "start.php" is not
in the directory at the top of the document root of
the "primary host" in your apache setup, or otherwise
not accessible [if it's there and accessible, but php isn't
properly configured you'll get the php source, rather than
server-parsed output]:
-- have you reviewed your apache configuration to be certain
of where the "document root" of your "primary host" is?
-- have you checked to see if the file (start.php) is there
(and readable by user that apache runs as on your system)?
-- have you checked your server logs (specifically the
error log in this case)?
you need to do basic troubleshooting -- we can't do it for you.
