The "CouldNotBindToAddress" page has been changed by preaction:

Comment:
clarify the reason for conflicting listen directives

  Listen *:80
  Listen 1.2.3.4:80
  }}}
- will incur the same error message. This can be remedied by disambiguating the 
ip/port numbers.
+ will incur the same error message. Apache binds to *:80, and then tries to 
also bind on 1.2.3.4:80, which fails because it is already bound by the first 
line. If you're binding on *:PORT, you do not need to also bind on a specific 
IP. 
  
  === You're not root ===
  Unix based systems disallow non-root users to bind processes to port numbers 
below 1024. Get root!
