The error log tells you that apache isn't able to listen for incoming
connections - someone else is using the socket.  Your config looks ok for what
you want to do.

Could you have apache running twice, with a different config for the first one?
Right after the above error, you'll probably see a message that apache is
shuttting down because it can't get a socket.

Make sure you stop anything that might be listening on port 80 and then try
starting apache again - should work fine.  (I'm assuming you have things
arranged so that when you use the virtual server name in your browser it winds
you up at the right IP.  If not, fix that too.)
