C# code to execute ubuntu shell command

I am running Ubuntu Shell command through C# code, when I run this Script in Ubuntu it shows as 'Syntax OK' but when I run it through C# code it Always returns exitCode - 1. Please Correct my code if something id wrong.

string _exitCode="";
Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "/bin/bash";

proc.StartInfo.Arguments ="-c \" apachectl -t -f /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/example.conf \"";

proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;

proc.Start();

proc.BeginOutputReadLine();

proc.StandardError.ReadToEndAsync();

proc.WaitForExit(3000);

if (!proc.HasExited)
proc.Kill();

_exitCode = proc.ExitCode.ToString();

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.ComponentModel;
namespace MyProcessSample
{
class MyProcess
{
public static void Main()
{
Process myProcess = new Process();
try
{
myProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
// You can start any process, HelloWorld is a do-nothing example.
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\\HelloWorld.exe";
myProcess.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
myProcess.Start();
// This code assumes the process you are starting will terminate itself.
// Given that is is started without a window so you cannot terminate it
// on the desktop, it must terminate itself or you can do it programmatically
// from this application using the Kill method.
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}
}
}
}
