[Bug 268868] [NEW] [Intrepid Alpha 5] NameVirtualHost entry in ports.conf causes "NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts" warning

[Dax Solomon Umaming]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apache2

I've setup a sandbox and configured VirtualHosts.
I noticed that NameVirtualHost has an entry in /etc/apache2/ports.conf
I've configured /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and added a few more VirtualHost entries there but reload only gave me a warning:
[Thu Sep 11 15:05:04 2008] [warn] NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts

Here's my /etc/apache2/sites-available/default file:

NameVirtualHost *
<VirtualHost *>
        DocumentRoot "/var/www"
        ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
        DocumentRoot "/home/dax/Codes/OMS"
        ServerName oms
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
        DocumentRoot "/home/dax/Codes/Ticketing"
        ServerName ticketing
</VirtualHost>

Servers ticketing and oms are both pointed at 127.0.0.1 on /etc/hosts
and this setup should've worked. However, no matter what server I
access, I always end up at /var/www.

I soon found out that /etc/apache2/ports.conf has NameVirtualHost entry:

# If you just change the port or add more ports here, you will likely also
# have to change the VirtualHost statement in
# /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default

NameVirtualHost *:80
Listen 80

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
    # SSL name based virtual hosts are not yet supported, therefore no
    # NameVirtualHost statement here
    Listen 443
</IfModule>

I commented out NameVirtualHost and got my oms and radio servers working
after reload.
