[plug] WordPress installation

[Tim]

You don't need vhosts, but usually vhosts are setup. There is a
special vhost that will "catch all" domains/ips not assigned it's own
vhost. It will normally start with a line like:
<VirtualHost *:80>

Regarding MySQL, apache needs to know nothing. That's for PHP/Scripts
to know about.
PHP though, Apache does need to know about that.
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ should have symlinks for the enabled
modules, and php5 or maybe php should be listed there for scripts to
work.
