It is actually just a syntax problem, you should delete the ":"s after
your begin and end src lines so the above becomes

#+BEGIN_SRC txt :tangle vhost.conf
ServerName Example.com
DocumentRoot "/var/www/example.com"
#+END_SRC

Then tangling should work as expected.  You'd be surprised how long it
took me to notice the colons :).  One good way to solve these sorts of
issues is using the built in templates, e.g., type "<s" at the beginning
of a line and then press TAB.

Best,
