What distro? Where did you download Apache from?

It is not a Drupal problem, though.

Is apache started?
Do you have any other web servers installed?

Well, you should not get distinct errors with localhost and 127.0.0.1 since they are the same.
If you get a list of files with 127.0.0.1 it means that the server is running but you have no index page.
Just to confirm, open a shell and type 'ping 127.0.0.1'

Then, create an empty file index.html and index.htm and place them in the web folder. If you stop seen the files, then apache is running and you can look deeper into the problem.

Tell me what you find.
