I'll try to help, but I'm not very knowledgable about apache (and my web server runs
RH6.2, not RH7 -- I think a few things changed, such as locations of files, etc) --
maybe someone else on the list who is more knowledgable about apache will jump in...

Here's a few things you might try:
(1) Check out: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#lockfile -- does this
describe your situation?
(2) What happens if you mannually try to start httpd, "/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start"?
Do you get any additional error messages which might indicate what is going wrong?
(3) Look in /var/httpd/ for any stale lock files (httpd.lock.#). Assuming httpd is
not running, delete the lock files.
(4) Are your disk(s) full? What's the output from df -h?
