= VirtualHosts & Mixing Ports =

If you get the following error when you attempt to start Apache, it is a 
warning to tell you that you have a misconfiguration of your {{{httpd.conf}}}

{{{
VirtualHost *:80 -- mixing * ports and non-* ports with a NameVirtualHost 
address is not supported, proceeding with undefined results
}}}

This occurs if you attempt to mix the use of *:80 with ones that do not use *.  
For example :

{{{
NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www
ServerName www.example.com
...
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.1:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www
ServerName www.example.org
...
</VirtualHost>
}}}
''You will see in the config snippet above that the second {{{VirtualHost}}} 
has an IP address, not a *''

You really have two choices here:

 1. If you used the IP address as a means to only allow the site to be served 
from that IP Address, then you now need an additional {{{NameVirtualHost}}} 
directive that matches your {{{VirtualHost}}} block.  (In this case that would 
be {{{NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.1:80}}})

 2. Change the {{{VirtualHost}}} block to match your {{{NameVirtualHost}}} 
directive
