Based on that, your site configuration file has an error on line 5. So that's what you should check. Of course you can post the contents of that file here if you want other people to take a look..

$ cat /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/airtime-vhost

line 5 - original

ServerAdmin root@localhost An email address is required for the virtual host configuration.

Tried;
1)
satimis@icecast.mydomain.com
2)
satimis@mydomain.com

Also tried;
ServerName www.mydomain.com

satimis@mydomain.com (mail address)

All failed.

Apache2 was automatically installed when running;

$ sudo apt-get install airtime


I suspect there is another config file its content must be matched.

Must "hostname" be matched?

$ hostname

ub1204dk02

$ hostname -f

ub1204dk02


Thanks

Just change this:

ServerAdmin root@localhost An email address is required for the virtual host configuration.
...into this:

ServerAdmin root@localhost
The rest of the text on the line doesn't belong there and result in the error about the ServerAdmin option only accepting one parameter (having all the other words on the same line would make each word a new parameter for the option. And of course none of the words would be a valid parameter even if the option accepted more than one...
