Misleading message when User directive not supplied for suexec

           Summary: Misleading message when User directive not supplied for
                    suexec
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: 1.3.29
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: cnelson@nycap.rr.com


I'm trying to get suexec working on Apache httpd 1.3.29.  suexec is installed as:

  -rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 24520 ... /usr/apache/bin/suexec

and httpd -l says:

  Compiled-in modules:
    http_core.c
    mod_log_config.c
    mod_mime.c
    mod_dir.c
    mod_cgi.c
    mod_actions.c
    mod_alias.c
    mod_access.c
    mod_auth.c
    mod_ssl.c
  suexec: enabled; valid wrapper /usr/apache/bin/suexec

and my httpd.conf file includes:

  <VirtualHost _default_:80>
    ...
    Group admin
  </VirtualHost>
  ...
  <VirtualHost _default_:443>
    Group admin
    ...
  </VirtualHost>

but when I start up httpd, error_log includes:

  Warning: Group directive in <VirtualHost> requires SUEXEC wrapper.
  Warning: Group directive in <VirtualHost> requires SUEXEC wrapper.
 			
Adding User directives to the <VirtualHost> sections eliminates these messages.
 The messages should accurately report that the User directive is missing, no
that SUEXEC isn't available.
