Possibly you need to set the server name in httpd.conf.  Look in
/var/log for apache_error.log and see if it says something about not
being able to figure out your server name.  If it does, edit
/usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf appropriately.  This error occurs
when your hostname is not fully qualified (ie. no valid domain name).
