execvp is the system call that starts another program.  If it's giving
the above error, whatever the system call is trying to start isn't
there.

My suggestion would be to run the httpd init script with bash tracing.

# sh -x /etc/init.d/httpd restart

If that doesn't give you a good hint, I'm not sure what will.

Does `apachectl restart` give you the same error?
