can you check as,

# netstat -na | grep 80

Do you have in /etc/services file as,

http 80/tcp www # World Wide Web HTTP
http 80/udp www # World Wide Web HTTP

Did you configure Listen TAG in httpd.conf with ip-address of your machine?

like,

Listen 10.31.77.134:80

or

Listen 127.0.0.1:80

It will work.

This could be because of the following,

1. Insufficient privileges.
2. 80 port already been used up by some other daemon.
3. Incorrect configurations.

You can not start apache then. You must be a root to startup apache. Check this,
