The OP pasted this in his 2nd post:
Starting web server: apache2[Thu Oct 04 01:02:03 2012]: [crit] (EAI
9)Address family for hostname not supported: Alloc_listener: failed to
set up sockaddr for pppp:qqqq:....:rrrr
Syntax error on line 2 of /etc/apache2/ports.conf
Listen setup failed.
Action 'start' failed.
The Apache error log may have more information.
failed!
I think Chris Bannister is onto something. I previously overlooked the
