I have configured apache to start manually. But when I try to run it I get an error saying unable to bind to port 150. That is the port I have designated for apache. I am running Mandrake 7. Some suggestions will be appreciated. Also, I want to know why this error occur.

This kind of error occurs if one instance of apache is already running or when you try to bind it to privileged port as a non root user. Assuming you have correctly disabled starting apache during boot then check if you are trying starting it as ordinary user. If it is a case logout, log in as root and try to start it. Also check its Error log to see if there are some other errors.
