This is probably a Ubuntu issue and not an Apache problem since Apache 
isn't getting installed.  In that case, there would be no log entries.

But:  on most Unix systems the Apache daemon runs as httpd and can be 
controlled by  <install-directory>/bin/apachectl.  he could check if the 
daemon is running by issuing any of the apachectl commands - like 
apachectl -k stop 

It could be as simple as the httpd service not being properly set up, 
although apt-get should have done that.  I don't run Ubuntu here so my 
installation is significantly different but that should be a start to 
debugging.

Remember you have to be root to run any of these commands.

As a last resort, just pull the current version of Apache from the Apache 
web site and install it.  I've never had a failure doing that (except, of 
course, my typing of the make commands!)
