Re: Virtual Web Server

I would suggest to analyze the problems you have with wordpress on httpd.

Just a few thoughts (shot in the dark):

"unable to post content" -> write permissions?

"crop images" -> do you have all the php libraries
installed that wordpress needs?
What is needed to crop images? gd? image-magick? check wordpress
requirements.

A good start is to see httpd's error log.
Also see the output of phpinfo().

Installing linux to host wordpress will not magically solve problems ;-)
