I am not sure that you are correct. Here are the relevant comment lines from the original /etc/apache/httpd.conf file:
# If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address here.
# You will have to access it by its address (e.g., http://123.45.67.89/) # anyway, and this will make redirections work in a sensible way. Anyway, it works for me!
