Package: apache2
Version: 2.2.3-4
Severity: normal

/etc/init.d/apache2 is a bit overzealous in checking the contents of /etc/default/apache2. If NO_START=1, the init script exits almost immediately. It never produces an error or any sort of informational message to the user. If a user attempts to start up apache manually via /etc/init.d/apache2 start, no message is returned and the user is left thinking that it did, in fact start, when what actually happened was that the script aborted before even looking at any command line options.
