Hi @anthony2,
You are running the ctlscript command wrong, you must do the following:
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart
You can see that Apache is running with the following command:
ps aux | grep httpd
Regarding the error "chown: cannot dereference...", it means some certificate links are broken. We recommend you to list the files with the command below and see if there is any issue:
ls -lh /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/
If you see the symlinks being broken (red color and gray background), you can probably remove the affected files (server.crt.old, server.crt.old1, etc.), for instance to remove one of them:
sudo rm /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/server.crt.old
Let us know if you are experiencing any other issue.
