You did not post what version and architecture you are using...
But I am runing several jails with Apache or Lighttpd without any issues
(on 6.3 i386 and 7.2 i386 + amd64).
So I expect some misconfiguration on your side.
Are you sure you have correct DNS entries pointing to right IP and you
have working resolv.conf inside jail? What about /etc/hosts?
