please help.. it's urgent.

Apache won't start for some reason. I ran /scripts/easyapache, and still nothing. I haven't changed anything that I know of, possibly suexec. But I've tried starting it with suexec enabled and disabled. This is what shows up in error_log

Can anyone please help me get this working. I don't know how to fix it.. I've already ran apachectl, and all it says is SYNTAX OK

Thanks.
