So lazy,

Issue is: "Attempting to start Apache manually.."

apt-get install apache2 -y
service apache2 start

It would have to configure Apache to run it properly?


I think this is a must have properly installed and configured in a standard backbox.

Just install apache like i said to you, and have fun.

for me it only worked when I went to /usr/share/setoolkit/config/set_config and changed "APACHE_SERVER=ON" to "APACHE_SERVER=OFF". does this method effect anything or I am good?

it won't affect anything, but the app wont use apache anymore that is all.
