             Bug #: 52532
           Summary: VirtualHost added TWICE to name-virtual-host list when
                    multiple names resolve to same IP address.
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.21
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P4
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


Example:

<VirtualHost www.example.com:80 www.example.org:80>
    ServerName  www.example.com
    ServerAlias www.example.org
...
These two hostnames share an IP address.


When more than one hostname resolves to a given address, the virtual host
section is added to that address' name-virtual-host chain more than once.
Result:

192.0.2.1:80       is a NameVirtualHost
         default server ... 
         port 80 namevhost www.example.com (.../httpd.conf:line-X)
         port 80 namevhost www.example.com (.../httpd.conf:line-X)

This problem does not affect the end-result operation of named virtual host
resolution.  However, having the same entry appear more than once in a given
NVH chain does cause unnecessary and duplicate comparisons (when the NVH isn't
matched via its ServerName, ServerAlias, or ServerPath values).

Solution:  One should check the existing NVH chain to see if the entry being
added is already on that list before adding it.  I have not even looked at the
code so I leave that for someone else more familiar with apache to deal with.
