Package: apache2
Version: 2.0.54-4
Severity: normal

When installing new Apache2 installation, I ran into the following 
situation. I removed the default site from sites-enabled and added my 
own NameVirtualHost and virtual hosts. Instead of "NameVirtualHost *" I 
had "NameVirtualHost X.Y.Z.W" where the IP address was first wrong and 
later correct. I kept getting the following error message for each page 
request:

[Fri Jul 08 20:21:12 2005] [error] [client 192.168.1.33] File does not 
exist: /htdocs

This was strange as htdocs was mentioned nowhere in the config files. I 
finally tried changing the NameVirtualHost to * and lo behold - thing 
worked.

I guess this is upstream problem so please forward this to them. The 
error message is completely misleading.
