What distro are you running?

Just to be sure is your apache server running, to check run

~#ps -e | grep apache

or

~#ps -e | grep httpd

and check if there is an entry in the output.

Try clearing the web cache in your browser, that is all offline files.

Try entering http://127.0.0.1 or http://locahost and see if they work and
finally do you have a firewall set up on the machine?
