AddModule order important within apache configure file

           Summary: AddModule order important within apache configure file
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: 1.3.27
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jjolly@mindless.com


There is no documentation (that I could find) indicating that the order of 
AddModule statements within the configuration file.

This was apparent when attempting to use VirtualDocumentRoot and UserDir 
operators.  The idea configuration would be to have document roots specified by 
the hostname, except where ~<uid> was used in the path.  In this case, the 
public_html directory specified by UserDir should take precidence.

In the initial configuration, AddModule mod_userdir.c preceeded AddModule 
mod_vhost_alias.c.  This caused all ~<uid> requests to be mapped to the 
document root of the host.  After swapping the two directives (mod_userdir.c 
after mod_vhost_alias.c), the ~<uid> requests were successful as well as 
virtual document root request.

Had this been documented in the AddModule reference, a couple of hours work 
would have been saved.
