Thanks the problem was that the changes I was making in ports.conf were not 
being included in the apache config. I added an include in httpd.conf and now 
it works. Such a silly thing to miss.

Thanks,
CaptainVic

Did you actually configure Apache httpd to listen on port 8080? Simply
doing "<VirtualHost *:8080>" doesn't actually listen on that port: it
configured a virtual host that will respond to requests that come in
on that port.

You have to use the "Listen" directive to actually start listening.
Some Linux distros use a file called "ports.conf" that just contains
"Listen" directives, so you may never have seen that directive.
