Hi Tom, To have Apache start on boot do: _systemctl enable apache2_
Then a _systemctl status apache2_ yields something like : dbc:~ # systemctl status apache2 ● apache2.service - The Apache Webserver Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/apache2.service; *enabled;* vendor preset: disabled) Active: active (running) since Tue 2020-06-16 07:33:57 EDT; 2 days ago ..... more stuff omitted .... Note the "*enabled*". Dave.
