Are you trying to start it as root (required for ports like 80 & 443)?

The user it starts as might not have permissions to your
/var/www/html/wals directory.

I would search for 443 in your {server}/conf/httpd.conf file.  See what
you need to comment out.

You probably have indexing turned off & also don't have an index.html
file in that directory.

See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#directory

Hope that helps you.
