Can"t get Apache 2.2 to display anything

I'm trying to get the webserver to display my index page. I placed
everything required in \htdocs\ inside the default Apache installation
directory. However, when I try localhost in my browser, all I see is "It
Works!". What could be the problem?
My httpd.conf: http://pastebin.com/m1eab135a
error.log: http://pastebin.com/m72374816

Thanks in advance.

"C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/index.html" ?

RE: Can"t get Apache 2.2 to display anything

On line 177 you have=20

DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs"

So apache will go there and look for "index.html". It appears this file
is the standard apache "It works!" file. So there is no problem with
apache, just with your understanding of how apache finds the content...

The usual thing that most people do is to make their own content
directory and put their own "index.html" in it. Then they point
"DocumentRoot to that directory. This saves mixing your content with
apache documentation stuff.

Eg;

DocumentRoot "C:/Users/fred/mysite"

then C:/Users/fred/mysite/index.html is your homepage.
