I set up a site a while ago to work on port 8080, and copying the configuration, changing only the root directory and port, I expected to have another site served on port 8082, but it fails with: Error 102 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED): The server refused the connection.
Here are all the relevant config files, I can post more if there is something missing.
sysadmin@cpms-hub:~$ cat /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default

Did you set apache to listen on port 8082? You'll need to add an additional Listen statement in an appropriate configuration file.
