I've found that the contents of apache.conf are already being loaded by phpmyadmin.conf located in /etc/apache2/conf.d which means that you can remove (or comment) the following line from your apache2.conf file.

Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf

Hope this helps.

It appears as if you may have manually edited or copied the configuration file in order to create an Alias statement for the phpMyAdmin file, but the package manager also did that for you, so you seem to now have two statements that overlap.

In that case, simply undo the changes you manually made. – Isaac Bennetch Sep 28 '13 at 02:26
