subdomain redirection not working

Hello,

I have a domain (let's call it mydomain.org) and I am trying to set up a subdomain called server.mydomain.org which redirects traffic to a specific ip, which is different from mydomain.org's ip. This is a remote server. For some reason mydomain.org works fine, but accessing server.mydomain.org brings up the same page as mydomain.org. It does not redirect the traffic. Any random subdomain also brings up mydomain.org... for instance, x.mydomain.org. It seems that apache is not reading my subdomain's VirtualHost entry.

Here is /etc/httpd/conf/extras/httpd-vhosts.conf, which is included in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

Listen 80

<VirtualHost _default_:80>
    ServerName mydomain.org:80

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
    RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *>
    ServerName server.mydomain.org

    SSLProxyEngine On
    SSLProxyVerify none
    SSLProxyCheckPeerCN off
    SSLProxyCheckPeerName off
    SSLProxyCheckPeerExpire off

    ProxyPass / https://[server ip]/
    ProxyPassReverse / https://[server ip]/

    ProxyRequests Off
    ProxyPreserveHost On

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^server\.mydomain\.org$
    RewriteRule (.*) https://[server ip]/$1 [P,L]
</VirtualHost>

Where [server ip] is the ip of the server I'm trying to redirect to.

There is another VirtualHost entry in /etc/httpd/conf/extras/httpd-ssl.conf which looks like this:

<VirtualHost _default_:443>
DocumentRoot "/srv/http"
ServerName mydomain.org:443
ServerAdmin you@example.com
ErrorLog "/var/log/httpd/error_log"
TransferLog "/var/log/httpd/access_log"

The idea here is to redirect all http traffic on mydomain.org to https://mydomain.org, and redirect all traffic from server.mydomain.org to [server ip].

Here is the output from "apachectl -S":

VirtualHost configuration:
*:80                   mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf:42)
*:*                    server.mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf:53)
*:443                  mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:121)
ServerRoot: "/etc/httpd"
Main DocumentRoot: "/srv/http"
Main ErrorLog: "/var/log/httpd/error_log"
Mutex default: dir="/run/httpd/" mechanism=default 
Mutex mpm-accept: using_defaults

PidFile: "/run/httpd/httpd.pid"
Define: DUMP_VHOSTS
Define: DUMP_RUN_CFG
User: name="http" id=33
Group: name="http" id=33

I've done a lot of googling on this, and I can't seem to get it working. Please let me know what I'm doing wrong. Thanks.

Re: subdomain redirection not working

Firstly the error message is pointing you to the lines that are causing the issue:

*:80                   mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf:42)    <line 42 of the file mention<<
*:*                    server.mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf:53) <<line 53 of the file mentioned<<
*:443                  mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:121) <<<line 121 of the file mentioned<<<

What do you see here:
/var/log/httpd/error_log

You might want to consider creating 3 seperate log files for each site so you can see the full error for each virtual host.

Does the remote server run arch?
please give us uname -a output

when it comes to redirect why not try the 501 redirect using a .htaccess fisrt to ensure you vhost is actually working.

Re: subdomain redirection not working

You've also clearly only shown excerpts from the relevant config files.  Don't do that.  Post the complete configs either here or on a file sharing site and post the link to them here.

Re: subdomain redirection not working

Alright, sorry about that. Here are the complete config files. I'm still leary about posting my actual domain and ip.

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

#
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file.  It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/> for detailed information.
# In particular, see 
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directives.html>
# for a discussion of each configuration directive.
#
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do.  They're here only as hints or reminders.  If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.  
#
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path.  If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/access_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr/local/apache2" will be interpreted by the
# server as "/usr/local/apache2/logs/access_log", whereas "/logs/access_log" 
# will be interpreted as '/logs/access_log'.

#
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
#
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path.  If you point
# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to specify a local disk on the
# Mutex directive, if file-based mutexes are used.  If you wish to share the
# same ServerRoot for multiple httpd daemons, you will need to change at
# least PidFile.
#
ServerRoot "/etc/httpd"

#
# Mutex: Allows you to set the mutex mechanism and mutex file directory
# for individual mutexes, or change the global defaults
#
# Uncomment and change the directory if mutexes are file-based and the default
# mutex file directory is not on a local disk or is not appropriate for some
# other reason.
#
# Mutex default:/run/httpd

#
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
# directive.
#
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to 
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.
#
#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
Listen 80

##  SSL Global Context
##
##  All SSL configuration in this context applies both to
##  the main server and all SSL-enabled virtual hosts.
##

#   SSL Cipher Suite:
#   List the ciphers that the client is permitted to negotiate,
#   and that httpd will negotiate as the client of a proxied server.
#   See the OpenSSL documentation for a complete list of ciphers, and
#   ensure these follow appropriate best practices for this deployment.
#   httpd 2.2.30, 2.4.13 and later force-disable aNULL, eNULL and EXP ciphers,
#   while OpenSSL disabled these by default in 0.9.8zf/1.0.0r/1.0.1m/1.0.2a.
SSLCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:!MD5:!RC4
SSLProxyCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:!MD5:!RC4

#  By the end of 2016, only TLSv1.2 ciphers should remain in use.
#  Older ciphers should be disallowed as soon as possible, while the
#  kRSA ciphers do not offer forward secrecy.  These changes inhibit
#  older clients (such as IE6 SP2 or IE8 on Windows XP, or other legacy
#  non-browser tooling) from successfully connecting.  
#
#  To restrict mod_ssl to use only TLSv1.2 ciphers, and disable
#  those protocols which do not support forward secrecy, replace
#  the SSLCipherSuite and SSLProxyCipherSuite directives above with
#  the following two directives, as soon as practical.
# SSLCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:!SSLv3:!kRSA
# SSLProxyCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:!SSLv3:!kRSA

#   User agents such as web browsers are not configured for the user's
#   own preference of either security or performance, therefore this
#   must be the prerogative of the web server administrator who manages
#   cpu load versus confidentiality, so enforce the server's cipher order.
SSLHonorCipherOrder on 

#   SSL Protocol support:
#   List the protocol versions which clients are allowed to connect with.
#   Disable SSLv3 by default (cf. RFC 7525 3.1.1).  TLSv1 (1.0) should be
#   disabled as quickly as practical.  By the end of 2016, only the TLSv1.2
#   protocol or later should remain in use.
SSLProtocol all -SSLv3
SSLProxyProtocol all -SSLv3

#   Pass Phrase Dialog:
#   Configure the pass phrase gathering process.
#   The filtering dialog program (`builtin' is an internal
#   terminal dialog) has to provide the pass phrase on stdout.

#   Inter-Process Session Cache:

#   to use and second the expiring timeout (in seconds).
#SSLSessionCache         "dbm:/run/httpd/ssl_scache"
SSLSessionCache        "shmcb:/run/httpd/ssl_scache(512000)"

#   OCSP Stapling (requires OpenSSL 0.9.8h or later)
#
#   This feature is disabled by default and requires at least
#   the two directives SSLUseStapling and SSLStaplingCache.
#   Refer to the documentation on OCSP Stapling in the SSL/TLS
#   How-To for more information.
#
#   Enable stapling for all SSL-enabled servers:
#SSLUseStapling On

#   Define a relatively small cache for OCSP Stapling using
#   the same mechanism that is used for the SSL session cache
#   above.  If stapling is used with more than a few certificates,
#   the size may need to be increased.  (AH01929 will be logged.)

#   Server Certificate:
#   Point SSLCertificateFile at a PEM encoded certificate.  If
#   the certificate is encrypted, then you will be prompted for a
#   pass phrase.  Note that a kill -HUP will prompt again.  Keep
#   in mind that if you have both an RSA and a DSA certificate you

#   Server Certificate Chain:
#   Point SSLCertificateChainFile at a file containing the

#   the referenced file can be the same as SSLCertificateFile
#   when the CA certificates are directly appended to the server
#   certificate for convenience.
#SSLCertificateChainFile "/etc/httpd/conf/server-ca.crt"

#   Certificate Authority (CA):
#   Set the CA certificate verification path where to find CA
#   certificates for client authentication or alternatively one
#   huge file containing all of them (file must be PEM encoded)
#   Note: Inside SSLCACertificatePath you need hash symlinks

#   Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL):
#   Set the CA revocation path where to find CA CRLs for client
#   authentication or alternatively one huge file containing all
#   of them (file must be PEM encoded).
#   The CRL checking mode needs to be configured explicitly
#   through SSLCARevocationCheck (defaults to "none" otherwise).

#   number which specifies how deeply to verify the certificate
#   issuer chain before deciding the certificate is not valid.
#SSLVerifyClient require
#SSLVerifyDepth  10

#   TLS-SRP mutual authentication:
#   Enable TLS-SRP and set the path to the OpenSSL SRP verifier
#   file (containing login information for SRP user accounts).

#   Access Control:
#   With SSLRequire you can do per-directory access control based

#   SSL Engine Options:
#   Set various options for the SSL engine.
#   o FakeBasicAuth:
#     Translate the client X.509 into a Basic Authorisation.  This means that
#     the standard Auth/DBMAuth methods can be used for access control.  The
#     user name is the `one line' version of the client's X.509 certificate.
#     Note that no password is obtained from the user. Every entry in the user
#     file needs this password: `xxj31ZMTZzkVA'.
#   o ExportCertData:
#     This exports two additional environment variables: SSL_CLIENT_CERT and
#     SSL_SERVER_CERT. These contain the PEM-encoded certificates of the
#     server (always existing) and the client (only existing when client
#     authentication is used). This can be used to import the certificates
#     into CGI scripts.
#   o StdEnvVars:
#     This exports the standard SSL/TLS related `SSL_*' environment variables.
#     Per default this exportation is switched off for performance reasons,
#     because the extraction step is an expensive operation and is usually
#     useless for serving static content. So one usually enables the
#     exportation for CGI and SSI requests only.
#   o StrictRequire:
#     This denies access when "SSLRequireSSL" or "SSLRequire" applied even
#     under a "Satisfy any" situation, i.e. when it applies access is denied
#     and no other module can change it.
#   o OptRenegotiate:
#     This enables optimized SSL connection renegotiation handling when SSL
#     directives are used in per-directory context. 
#SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth +ExportCertData +StrictRequire
<FilesMatch "\.(cgi|shtml|phtml|php)$">
    SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</FilesMatch>
<Directory "/srv/http/cgi-bin">
    SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Directory>

#   SSL Protocol Adjustments:
#   The safe and default but still SSL/TLS standard compliant shutdown
#   approach is that mod_ssl sends the close notify alert but doesn't wait for
#   the close notify alert from client. When you need a different shutdown
#   approach you can use one of the following variables:
#   o ssl-unclean-shutdown:
#     This forces an unclean shutdown when the connection is closed, i.e. no
#     SSL close notify alert is sent or allowed to be received.  This violates
#     the SSL/TLS standard but is needed for some brain-dead browsers. Use
#     this when you receive I/O errors because of the standard approach where
#     mod_ssl sends the close notify alert.
#   o ssl-accurate-shutdown:
#     This forces an accurate shutdown when the connection is closed, i.e. a
#     SSL close notify alert is send and mod_ssl waits for the close notify
#     alert of the client. This is 100% SSL/TLS standard compliant, but in
#     practice often causes hanging connections with brain-dead browsers. Use
#     this only for browsers where you know that their SSL implementation
#     works correctly. 
#   Notice: Most problems of broken clients are also related to the HTTP
#   keep-alive facility, so you usually additionally want to disable
#   keep-alive for those clients, too. Use variable "nokeepalive" for this.
#   Similarly, one has to force some clients to use HTTP/1.0 to workaround
#   their broken HTTP/1.1 implementation. Use variables "downgrade-1.0" and
#   "force-response-1.0" for this.
BrowserMatch "MSIE [2-5]" \

         downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0

#   compact non-error SSL logfile on a virtual host basis.

Firstly the error message is pointing you to the lines that are causing the issue:

*:80                   mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf:42)    <line 42 of the file mention<<
*:*                    server.mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf:53) <<line 53 of the file mentioned<<
*:443                  mydomain.org (/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:121) <<<line 121 of the file mentioned<<<

I must be missing something, I don't see where the problem is in those lines.

Does the remote server run arch?
please give us uname -a output

The remote server is running Ubuntu. I believe it is customized by the vendor.

$ uname -a
Linux seedbox 2.6.32-042stab116.1 #1 SMP Wed May 4 16:21:02 MSK 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

when it comes to redirect why not try the 501 redirect using a .htaccess fisrt to ensure you vhost is actually working.

I'm not familiar with that. I'm new to this, which I'm sure is obvious. I'll google it and see if I can get it working. Thanks for the response.

Re: subdomain redirection not working

All of your errors relate to the use of "_default_" as the hostname.  I've never used this and am not familiar with it, but from reading the apache docs, it does not sound like something you should want.

Why are you using this for the hostname?

Re: subdomain redirection not working

All of your errors relate to the use of "_default_" as the hostname.  I've never used this and am not familiar with it, but from reading the apache docs, it does not sound like something you should want.

Why are you using this for the hostname?

From what I read in the documentation, using _default_ is simply a way to catch all traffic that has not already been specified by another virtual host. It is basically an alternative to putting that same virtual host config in the main server, since the main server would also be the default config for all traffic not caught by a virtual host. It seems like they should be functionally identical.

In my case, the traffic to server.mydomain.org should be being caught by the virtual host that specifies that as it's ServerName. But this doesn't seem to be happening.

Either way, I tried changing both virtual hosts that use _default_ to *:80 and *:443 respectively, and I got the exact same result. Here is the updated output from apachectl -S:

VirtualHost configuration:

As you can see, it's the same as when I was using _default_.
