Hi Chris,

This isn't actually the relevant line.  You are getting the error on line
187 because apache doesn't know what to do with <Virtual due to the module
not being loaded.

Somewhere near the beginning of the file should be a load of lines
specifying which modules should be loaded.  It is likely that this is
where the problem is, and if the configuration utility isn't adding it you
should be able to add the line by hand.

Can you post that section?
