Here are my current permissions.  Can you please tell me how to fix them using sudo chmod?

$ ls -l /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  76 Mar  1 14:33 /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist -> /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/org.macports.apache2.plist

$ ls -l /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/org.macports.apache2.plist
-rw-rw-r--+ 2 root  admin  958 Mar  1 14:33 /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/org.macports.apache2.plist

I'm not sure why the permissions on /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist are wrong on your system, but they need to be fixed, using sudo chmod.

On my system, where apache2 loads fine, the permissions are:

$ ls -l /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  76 Feb 27 23:24 /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist -> /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/org.macports.apache2.plist

$ ls -l /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/org.macports.apache2.plist
-rw-r--r--  2 root  wheel  958 Feb 27 23:23 /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/org.macports.apache2.plist
