The server itself just issues 0 for success and 1 for failure as far as I know. apachectl has some other codes documented in comments at the top of the script. I don't know where 141 would be coming from. Do you get any interesting error messages at the prompt or in the error log? If not, try running httpd under strace or the equivalent.
