[Casper] HTTP Distribution/Packages Verified

Hi All,

Just as an addition to this I had a similar issue with this error, turned
out that I had performance cache enabled on Apache which redirects web
listings to port 16080 and breaks Casper HTTP distribution.

Disabled Perf Cache and the distributions started working again.

As to Steves comment hope this also helps people out.

Regards,

Chris
