i do not know as i run potato. i do not use apacheconfig as i can
hardly imagine a script that really configures apache the way you
want it to.

i would do so. to test whether the syntax of httpd.conf is
ok, do the following (apache does not get started):

/usr/sbin/apache -t

for debugging, do

/usr/sbin/apache -X

(runs apache in single-process mode)

normal start:

/usr/sbin/apache &

rgds
