In the RA it is clearly stated:

If you set this, make sure that it succeeds *only* from localhost (127.0.0.1). Otherwise, it may happen that the cluster complains about the resource being active on multiple nodes.

It seems that you use local apache conf - this can cause trouble supporting any changes in the future. I would recommend you to create 2  directories on a shared storage:
A) for DocumentRoot
B) for Configurations
Set the proper selinux context and update the resource.

Also verify that the binary is available on all nodes. I think you mentioned  compiling the  binary from source .
Any reason behind that ?
