Thanks for responding, Bruce.

I have Bootcamp 4 installed with Windows 7, but this problem exhibits itself on 
the Mac side. No Paralles or VM.

Haven't checked the log files recently, will do so when I finish up some tasks 
while running Windows.

The httpd.conf files are very, very different. That installed for Lion in 
/private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf is for Apache 2.2.21 and is configured for a 
computer and a user site. The one installed by me is in 
/private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf. 

The are some changes in configuring access control: 
<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html>

I don't know if changing "Order allow, deny" plus "Deny from all" to "Require 
all denied" is working as advertised. But I can stay with the older access 
control and use the new access compatibility module for now.

The same PidFile is used for both installations, so I don't believe they'll run 
at the same time.

User and Group are the same for each install, namely _www:_www. However, when I 
run " httpd -S" on my install, it reports that id=70 for both is not used. You 
may be onto something with user:group. When I restart the server with Virtual 
Hosts turned on, the behavior gets even more weird. It completely overlooks the 
main website and uses the first defined VH instead. 

I haven't used Macports because they don't yet have one for Apache 2.4.1.  I 
downloaded the source then configured and compiled it per 
<http://diymacserver.com/mamp/lion/compiling-apache/>.

Will have to get back to you this evening with more findings. Thanks again.
