Addition to my last problem:

I can su root and restart the apache2 like this:

masnun at ubuntu:~$ su root
Password:
root at ubuntu:/home/masnun# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
 * Restarting web server
apache2                                                 ...
waiting                                                             [ OK ]
root at ubuntu:/home/masnun#

But I could run apache2 from my own account when I first installed it.
