Virtual host setup with single IP address problem
|
|
| Goomba 2006-02-13, 2:54 am |
| i found an article http://www.apacheweek.com/features/vhost and followed it.
However i must be doing something wrong as it is not working same with
apaches docs.
i have one IP address from my isp, in my router i have all port 80 requests
going to a local ip address 192.168.1.100.
both domains have their A records set to my static IP address provided by my
ISP. the DNS for these domains are through dotsters DNS service.
in apache i set (from apache docs)
NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.100:80
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.domain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/domain
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.otherdomain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/otherdomain
</VirtualHost>
Now when i type in the domain, both servernames go to the first VirtualHost
listed. What am i doing wrong?
TIA

The domain names must resolve to the ip address stated in the
namevirtualhost directive above on your web server, or else they won't
apply.
Add the records to your /etc/hosts on this server, and it'll work.
Use...
NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.100:80
<VirtualHost www.domain.tld:80>
ServerName www.domain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/domain
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost www.otherdomain.tld:80>
ServerName www.otherdomain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/otherdomain
</VirtualHost>
As your definitions ( well, I hope you at least define separate log files! )
Once you actually get apache to restart without errors, it'll work
properly in real life.

im running on windows and my hosts file looks like:
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.200 mydomain1.com
192.168.1.201 mydomain2.com
my httpd.conf file looks like:
NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.200:80
<VirtualHost www.mydomain1.com:80>
ServerName www.mydomain1.com
DocumentRoot D:\web\domain1\htdocs
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost www.mydomain2.com:80>
ServerName www.mydomain2.com
DocumentRoot D:\web\domain2\htdocs
</VirtualHost>
my router is setup to forward all port 80 requests to 192.168.1.200. now
when you type in the domain name it always resolved to the first virtual
host. what am i doing wrong?
TIA

What do you expect? www.mydomain2.com doesn't resolve to 192.168.1.200 -
it doesn't resolve at all!
Change your hosts file to
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.200 www.mydomain1.com www.mydomain2.com
And restart apache.
