Review the error.log to see if there are any indications of problems. Also check the httpd.conf to validate that there is a virtual host or listen statement which uses port 443.
The other thing to check is run netstat -an before starting the server to see if there are any other processes listening on port 443

Here is the error log. But key files are in place. At least from the look of it in the directory. I did run netstat, and couldn't find any 443 port listening.
