Please run and post the output ofsudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get --simulate dist-upgrade. As far as I can tell, Apache has nothing to do with it.

Well I think you should uninstall it.
Type the following command in you terminal to remove all the packages associated to it
and after re-install it "it takes less than a 5 minutes".
sudo apt-get purge apache2
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get install apache2
In case you wanna go ahead check out this link: install-apache-mysql-php-on Ubuntu. Am currently relying on it to a little bit how these guys are configured and debugged. It will do you good I believe.
