From what Devon has stated, it's not clear which type of problem he's
having, but I can speak from personal experience when I say it's entirely
possible that OS X is not starting apache for another reason.
Which is why answers like "well when apache didn't start for me it
was because there was ocelot spleen gunking my air movers, so this
must be your problem too if apache isn't starting" is so ridiculous
of an answer. I think we all know there could be oodles of reasons
why something doesn't start and correlating it to any one w/o
troubleshooting is woolly thinking.
I never claimed "this must be your problem too".
No *you* didn't. Someone else did.
I was simply explaining
another possible reason apache is not starting. I don't see how this is
any different that your assertion that the failure was caused by
misconfiguration.
I can safely claim this b/c it *was* the problem. Moreover [almost]
every apache startup problem is a misconfiguration problem of some
sort. There are a few arcane exceptions I can think of but even those
could be classified as a misconfiguration.

I cannot say for certain that a port conflict was not the cause,
Hence my use of the word "likely".
