Bug#228033: apache does not start

[Fabio Massimo Di Nitto <fabbione@fabbione.net>]

Can you be a bit more specific? apache needs a valid hostname to work:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#servername

special note: "however this may not work reliably, or may not return the
preferred hostname."

Thanks
Fabio
