netstat -anp | grep apache

You could see the listening port and PID from this if it's running.

sudo netstat -anp | grep apache – Laukik Patel Feb 26 '15 at 05:43
It's showing 0.0.0.0:80 in the "Local Address" column. Does it mean apache is running at the same ip address of the machine, on port 80? – Rodrigo Sep 30 '15 at 14:33
try this `netstat -anp | grep -E 'State|java|solr|apache|php|nginx` – m1m1k Nov 03 '21 at 17:14

lsof -i list open ports and the corresponding applications.

For a general check if an app is running you could just use ps aux | grep apache2

netstat -tulpn

You'll see the Pid / Binary name on far right column, match this to your running apache instance.

If lsof is installed you could try something like this:

lsof | grep httpd

(for centos and friends)

lsof  | grep apache

(for debian and company)

If you just want the port number then run

sudo netstat -anp | grep apache | awk 'NR==1{print $4}' | grep -Eo '[0-9]{1,4}'
