If it's installed it is probably already running.  From the command line

ps -e | grep httpd

If the output looks like this it is running.

  2268 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2270 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2271 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2272 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2273 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2274 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2275 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2276 ?        00:00:00 httpd
  2277 ?        00:00:00 httpd

If you get nothing, try starting it

/sbin/service httpd start

Then try the command above to check to see if it is running.

To set it to start automatically type as root

/sbin/chkconfig httpd on
