Hi, I don't know if you've solved your problem yet. Anyway, I had a
similar problem tomorrow and, after inspecting my network's
connections with the "netstat -an" dos command, I noticed that a
program was blocking the port 80 (I got something like TCPIP
0.0.0.0:80 LISTENING).
The program blocking that port was SKYPE. If it's your case, look at
the configuration window of SKYPE: you'll find that under the
connection tab there's a checkbox that allows skype to listen to port
80 as an alternative. If you uncheck it, you can allow apache2 to
start correctly.
Hope this may help you.
bye
