strange , looks like you have already commented out those lines ... try starting apache with
apachectl graceful
also if you have an apache2.conf in your /usr/local/apache/conf/ dir rename the httpd.conf to something else and see if it's starting
mv httpd.conf httpd.conf.tmp

Is this from /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf or another httpd.conf?
