I want to create a virtual host in apache such that it serves only static content like stylesheets, videos, images, javascripts, text files, etc. I am not looking at any "processing" capabilities from this virtual host.

Create a VirtualHost entry as follows:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin [email protected]
ServerName media.domain.tld
DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents/media"
ErrorLog "/private/var/log/apache2/media-error_log"
CustomLog "/private/var/log/apache2/media-access_log" common
<Directory /Library/WebServer/Documents/media>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
SetHandler default-handler
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

I removed the `ServerAdmin`, `ServerName` and all those lines pertaining to logs and then restarted apache. I observe it is serving php files

it didn't work as expected. Do we still need the `Location` tag?

@deostroll: you can remove `Location`, `SetHandler` can be placed inside the `Directory` tag, too. Change its value to `default-handler`.
