Not that this is really any help but I had the same exact problem and never
could get it to work right. I don't know if this messed you up but I didn't
put my sources right in sources.list and had a bunch of little problems like
that. After hours of trying to find it I ended up reloading before I went
much further because of all the small problems. If I couldn't have reloaded
I probably would have uninstalled everything to do with apache2 and
reinstalled to try and fix it. I know that isn't the kind of help you want
but thought I would throw it out there.
