Insufficient information. Please answer:

1. What are the User/Group settings in httpd.conf?
2. What is the PidFile setting in httpd.conf?
3. What are the Listen/Port settings in httpd.conf?
4. Which user is trying to run apache? Is she a normal user? Does she have
superuser privileges?

Most likely you will find that the user who starts apache cannot write
to the PidFile and/or one/more of the log files.

netstat -lnp -A inet

(remove the -A inet for all sockets, not just TCP/IP ones)
