The starting and stopping messages are created by the script that
resides in /etc/rc.d/init.d/  its called (strangely enough) httpd.  To
start, stop, restart and get the status of your webserver, use:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start (or stop or restart or status)

Drop the - sign and tack the word httpd on the end of the command:
ps aux | grep httpd

Default redhat install places in it /home/httpd/html/
