There we have it. Apache is unable to resolve "bsd-box". This hostname should be resolvable, otherwise Apache will not work. Adding it to /etc/hosts is the easiest way:

192.168.1.104 bsd-box bsd-box.yourdomain.com

This line was already in /etc/hosts;

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.home.net bsd-box bsd-box.home.net

and I've added this line

192.168.1.104 bsd-box bsd-box.home.net


In addition to Jorn's advice, check /etc/defaults/rc.conf. The
file should exist and have permissions like so:

$ ls -l /etc/defaults/rc.conf
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 31735 May 15 18:48 /etc/defaults/rc.conf

and it should have the following line within:

$ grep lo0 /etc/defaults/rc.conf
ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" # default loopback device configuration.

All present.

Still cannot connect to localhost.
