Apache2 logs are usually found in /var/log/apache2; tho it varies depending
on the Linux distribution. You can find them by looking at the config files
in /etc/apache2 (tho I haven't touched a Fedora/Red Hat machine in years so
I don't know if they still use /etc/httpd instead of /etc/apache2).

If you recursively (-r) grep for 'Log' in all the files under /etc/apache2, 
like so:

cd /etc/apache2
grep -r Log *

you will likely turn up some directives specifying where log files go.

Likely, there will be an ErrorLog directive that denotes where the errors
should be recorded. Look at that file using the 'grep', 'less', and 'tail'
tools. (For instance, if you want to see the last 30 lines of it, do 'tail
-n 30 /var/log/apache2/error.log').
