Okay, it occurred to me that I never at any point expected the file xmlprc.php to load automatically.  I would have guessed something like an index.php or index.html to load instead.  I reinstalled wordpress, but that seemed to make no difference.

All that is in my DocumentRoot directory is a single index.html, and that doesn't even load.  I'm starting to wonder if this particular domain name is somehow tainted since the other sites seem to work just fine.

What I noticed that is particularly weird is that my method for testing seems to be flawed.  According to my method for testing via telnet gives the same results for all my sites, whereas testing with wget on my other site returns the correct page.  So the lines of "get / http/1.1", "Host: example.com" seem to be an inaccurate test.  Nothing is as it seems.  I really thought I understood how this webserver works...  I'm totally at a loss of explanation of why it just doesn't work; this shouldn't be so hard.

So I did a 'wget example.info' and I get the correct webpage.  I follow the same approach via telnet on port 80, as seen below, I get totally different results.  What is wrong with this test that would give a different result from wget?

I'm making a guess here. Are you asking whether I assign Host:

Yes, I noticed that. I noticed the difference later on in composing the message, but forgot to modify the first sentence during proofreading.

That redirect is issued by your PHP script.

... whereas that looks like a server redirection with a stray extra slash, and is probably generated from your apache configuration. Decide which you want to use, then configure your server and your PHP to agree on it.
That file, xmlprc.php is something generated by wordpress. I'm in no way familiar with how wordpress works. So this may be a wordpress configuration issue. The simplest may be to reinstall wordpress and hope it works. I'm not sure why these two behave differently (www.example.com vs example.com) I always thought the extra four letters were something that Apache knew how to deal with. It's hard to guarantee that the user will user type or omit the 'www.' What should be done about this?
