could you be running into firewall troubles? some firewalls don't like
programs that act as servers, so you have to configure the firewall (or
disable it temporarily for testing) to allow the server to serve on port 80
from your local box, possibly to other computers(somehow I don't think you
need to go quite that far).
If you can drop your firewall and apache works suddenly, then you've found
your problem.
