I can confirm this happening in $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=jaunty DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 9.04"

I know that this will probably work if I edit that 000-default vhost entry and add it there. But I don't like to edit files, jus dumping this in the conf.d/ should've "Just Worked".
