Hi Paul,
Your log file doesn't indicate anything out of hte normal.
Have you tried just viewing the default page that comes with the Apache
install, the one that says "If you can see this, it means that the
installation of the Apache web server
< http://www.apache.org/foundation/preFAQ.html> software on this system
was successful. You may now add content to this directory and replace
this page." Did that work? If so, then send your httpd.conf file,
because there's got to be some detail that's messed up.
One other possibility that comes to mind is whether you've configured
Apache to listen on the right address (localhost, or your local IP, or
whatever)
