You might have better luck posting questions like this to
alt.apache.configuration or comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix, but here
goes.

This behaviour can be caused by an erronous ServerName directive, i.e.
one that doesn't lead to the server when used by a web client (browser).
The reason is that some versions of Apache handle a folder name by
redirecting the browser to a new URL which has the "/" on the end, but
it needs ServerName to build up the URL. If it's wrong, the redirect
doesn't work. Fixing ServerName makes the redirect work, which solves
the problem.
