Bug#491868: apache2: upgrade caused virtualhosts to disappear

[Andrew France <andrew@avito.co.uk>]

Package: apache2
Version: 2.2.9-5
Severity: important

After upgrading Apache2 via aptitude full-upgrade all my virtual hosts
stopped working and pointed to the default site (the "It works!" message).

Restarting the server displayed this warning twice:
[warn] NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts

All my VirtualHost entries had been defined with:
<VirtualHost *>

To fix the problem I added the port to the all the directives:
<VirtualHost *:80>

I don't understand why I had to do this when it was working fine before
the upgrade. The Apache manual is clear that specifying the port is
optional.

Best regards,
Andrew
