So I thought I would put this line instead
Code:
ServerName localhost
It worked and this time I didn't get the annoying message.

Again, thanks a lot to everybody who tried to help



I ran all the commands as root
Great to hear that it worked! I'm not 100% sure on this, but I thought I read somewhere that apache does not like using 127.0.0.1 for SeverName in the main configuration section. It can make it flake out sometimes. It can however be used in the VirtualHost section. I tried putting in the 127.0.0.1 on a fresh configuration, and apache ran fine with no problems. I'm thinking that you may be something else in your configuration that apache didn't like.

Anyway, glad to hear that it's fixed. Not sure why the iptables command didn't run though. No biggie though if you are not using a firewall rule.
