All of the sudden, my development Apache webserver on my Macbook Pro stopped working. I found the soution here:

Hi aaron. I had exactly the same problem. “Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://localhost/” because it could not connect to the server “localhost”.
Using Terminal and issuing a “sudo apachectl -t” showed that I had a syntax error in line 1 of my httpd.conf file. I think it happened when I edited the file using Text Wrangler, and accidently saved it with hard-coded line-numbers prefixed to the lines; of course – apache didn’t understand the 1st line, which was “1 #”. Once I fixed that and restarted apache, everything started working as it used to in Mac OS X 10.4.10.

Here’s the solution to the problem I was having where two consecutive “Home” links were appearing in my Breadcrumb NavXT plug-in generated breadcrumb trail. The problem would appear on category listing pages (i.e. /category/news/). First off, I changed the name of an alternate home page template that I was using from “home.php” to something else. Apparently, WP uses index.php and home.php interchangeably. If home.php exists as an alternate template file, it will cause problems (read here for reference: http://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Reading_SubPanel). That was one thing.
The other change and the one that I think solved the problem was opening up the Breadcrumb NavXT settings panel and unchecking and clearing out the “Home Breadcrumb” setting. Saving the configuration and rechecking and resetting the Home Title to “Home”. When I took this action, the double Home was gone and all was good.
