NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts

February 21st, 2009 Category: Apache

If the message “NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts” appears during Apache start and no one of your virtual hosts is recognized it can be solved by changing the file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default and /etc/apache2/ports.conf. Within both files I’ve changed declarations “*:80″ to “*”:

/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default

<VirtualHost *>

/etc/apache2/ports.conf

NameVirtualHost *

Note that all your virtual host configurations also have to be defined with “<VirtualHost * >”.
