-------------------------------------
Summary: Depreciation of NameVirtualHosts breaks -D DUMP_VHOSTS
Key: HTTPCORE-457
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-457
Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HttpCore
Reporter: Simon Bazley
Priority: Minor
This is a duplicate of https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=61019
(not sure if bugzilla is still used).
See
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43539682/apachectl-t-d-dump-vhosts-not-showing-aliases
server/vhost.c : dump_a_vhost() contains a section to nicely present
information about NameVirtualHosts including ports, vhosts and aliases. It
also includes a simple if (ic->names == NULL) section to output something
basic, which doesn't include the extra information (so nothing about aliases),
if there are no NameVirtualHosts.
Since 2.4 NameVirtualHosts are depreciated, and so only the basic section of
the function is called when seeking to dump VHOSTS.
As an aside, in code where NameVirtualHosts are no longer allowed, is the code
that dumps NameVirtualHosts surplus to requirements anyway?
I think it worth noting that whatever the output is, it should be consistent,
so it can be parsed by scripts. The simple output and the complex output, are
quite different.
I suggest the complex output be rewritten to handle the brave new world without
NameVirtualHosts, otherwise a new method needs finding to get vhost aliases on
the output.
I've marked this as 2.4.7 as that's the version of apache I'm running, but I'm
looking at the trunk codebase, so presumably this applies to everything post
the depreciation of NameVirtualHosts (I assume >=2.4.0)

I didn't make clear that dump_a_vhost() is called for each host when apachectl
-t -D DUMP_VHOSTS is called
