I'm having trouble with my bran spankin' new FBSD 2.2.2 install.  I
installed the Apache port and when I attempt to execute
/usr/local/sbin/httpd as root, I get the following error...

open: no such file or directory
Cannot open lock file

What does this mean exactly?  What is the lock file?  Where is it located? 
How do I fix it?  Have I left anything out?  I would be happy to have
Apache running ;-]

Thanks,
--Chris
