Bitnami Engineer here,

it seems you installed the Apache2 system's service in the machine and it got started at boot time. That's why the Bitnami's Apache service can't be started because other service is already running in the 80 port. In order to stop and disable it, please run these commands

sudo service apache2 stop
sudo service apache2 disable
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start apache

Happy to help!
