Package: apache2.2-common
Version: 2.2.11-2
Severity: normal


Hi

The first vhost found in a system is the default vhost that will be used if nothing else matches.  However, given the current apache2.conf file, the "default" is not the default at all.


user@host-->grep -v "^#.*" apache2.conf | grep -i include
Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf
Include /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
Include /etc/apache2/ports.conf
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/
Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

If something is in the httpd.conf file, that will be the default, but per the apparent directory structure, it's supposed to be in the sites-enabled directory.  There was even an attempt to make the default load first by prepending zeros to the symlink file.  The problem is that this Include directory is LAST in order, instead of first.

I would recomend that the default apache2.conf file be ordered like so;

Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf
Include /etc/apache2/ports.conf
Include /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/

Note that I moved the ports.conf file too, just on personal opinion about how I use it.

If a package puts a vhost in conf.d, that would be a bug in that package. Vhosts should go into sites-available to allow the admin to enable/disable them.


Closing this bug.
