Debian Etch apache2 virtual host problem

        # HTML documents, with indexing.

        <Directory />
        Options +Includes
        </Directory>

this is extremely insecure if your machine is public see Order Deny, Allow

        # CGI Handling
        ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/workzone/cgi-bin/
        <Location /cgi-bin>
                Options +ExecCGI
        </Location>

        # Logfiles
        ErrorLog  /var/www/workzone/logs/error.log

        CustomLog /var/www/workzone/logs/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
---------------------------------Code
End----------------------------------------
The command apache2ctl configtest tells me "[Fri Jan 01 11:55:20 1999]

[warn] NameVirtualHost *:0 has no VirtualHosts
Syntax OK"

And /etc/init.d/apache2 reload tells me "[Fri Jan 01 11:56:30 1999]
[warn] NameVirtualHost *:0 has no VirtualHosts"

How can I solve the problem please? Can any of you help me out?

I think you must define at least a directive for a virtual host "inside" your document root.
Actually no pages can be served from your document root, there's not a web site definition but a cgi script alias, and you only get that warning instead of an error.

Blessings,
Rocky

hope this helps

you have not specified any virtual hosts. something like:

ServerName blah.foo.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/root/of/blah
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined

would be in order with a different block with unique ServerName for
each virtual host you want.

see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/vhosts/name-based.html
