Here's what happens: [localhost:var/log/httpd] phantom% apachectl restart /usr/sbin/apachectl restart: httpd not running, trying to start fopen: Permission denied httpd: could not open error log file /private/var/log/httpd/error_log. /usr/sbin/apachectl restart: httpd could not be started I tried removeing error_log(after making a backup, of course) and I get the same error. Tried using the backup httpd.conf to no avail. Thanks for your help.

  This message comes when U don't have the root password. Plus some instance(Processes) of Apache/HTTPD is already running.
  
  So log in as root. Kill all the associated processes, then log in from ur UserID & start, it should work...

  Try "sudo apachectl restart". You'll be asked for a password, which should be an administrative one.
