please help with virtual hosting

ruwach · 2005-01-30 06:18:20

hey there, i have checked the forums and all the docs at apache, but i cant find out what i am doing wrong.

i want to host two domains from this one computer with only one connection to the internet.
they are registered at Godaddy and i am using zoneedit to do the dns thing. so they are all comming to one ip.

so here is what i have in httpd.conf

listen 80

NameVirtualHost *:80

</VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.site1.org
DoccumentRoot /home/httpd/html/site1
</VirtualHost>

</VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.site2.com
DoccumentRoot /home/httpd/html/site2
</VirtualHost>

in the /home/httpd/html/ dirrectory i have two folders site1 and site2 with the index files in each.

i can open a browser and go to www.site1.org and loads up nice,
but when i try to go to site2, it tells me the server refused the connection.

any ideas ?
thanks

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName site1.org
ServerAlias *.site1.org
DoccumentRoot /home/httpd/html/site1
  <Directory "/home/httpd/html/site1">
      Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
      AllowOverride Options Indexes AuthConfig
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName site2.com
ServerAlias *.site2.com
DoccumentRoot /home/httpd/html/site2
  <Directory "/home/httpd/html/site2">
      Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
      AllowOverride Options Indexes AuthConfig
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

The above is similar to a few things I have. I use the same setup. Name based virtual hosting with apache, zoneedit for dns.
the key you were missing was that virtualhost does not begin with a /. It is like an XML tag. Only / on the closing tag.
You were also missing the specific directory sections.
Be sure to restart apache after making changes to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Good luck.

ps. Check /var/log/httpd/error_log when things aren't working right. Often it will show up in there.

still having a problem with it.
i commented out with # all entries regarding virtual hosting.
i then moved the index file from
/home/httpd/html/site2 and put it into
/home/httpd/html

opened firefox and went to www.site2.com and there it was !

so i have something awry in me ol http.conf regarding virtual hosting.

here is what i have in http.conf right now

### Section 3: Virtual Hosts
#
# VirtualHost: If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your
# machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations
# use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn't need to worry about
# IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below.
#
# Please see the documentation at
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/vhosts/>
# for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts.
#
# You may use the command line option '-S' to verify your virtual host
# configuration.

#
# Use name-based virtual hosting.
#
#NameVirtualHost *:80

#
# VirtualHost example:
# Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container.
# The first VirtualHost section is used for requests without a known
# server name.
#
#<VirtualHost *:80>
# ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com
# DocumentRoot /www/docs/dummy-host.example.com
# ServerName dummy-host.example.com
# ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/dummy-host.example.com-error_log
# CustomLog /var/log/httpd/dummy-host.example.com-access_log common

#<VirtualHost *:80>
#ServerName www.site2.com
#ServerAlias *.site2.com
#DoccumentRoot /home/httpd/html/site2
# <Directory "/home/httpd/html/site2">
# Options - Indexes +FollowSymLinks
# AllowOverride Options Indexes AuthConfig
# Order allow,deny
# Allow from all
# </Directory>
#</VirtualHost>

#<VirtualHost *:80>
#ServerName www.site1.org
#ServerAlias *.site1.org
#DoccumentRoot /home/httpd/html/site1
# <Directory "/home/httpd/html/site1">
# Options - Indexes +FollowSymLinks
# AllowOverride Options Indexes AuthConfig
# Order allow,deny
# Allow from all

# </Directory>
#</VirtualHost>

except for some stuff about languages and icons, didnt feel like that part mattered for this.

please advise
and thanks
