I want to create Virtual Server on my Apache 2 running on Linux. I am very
new to both Linux and Apache. I looked at the docs and this is what I have
in my apache2.conf I also tried this in my httpd.conf. When I browse either
testing.mydomain.com or testing1.mydomain.com I get the files in
/var/www/TEST never /var/www/TEST1. I am sure I am doing something stupid
but I cannot figure it out. Please help if you can...

Thanks!!!

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/TEST
<Directory "/var/www/TEST">
allow from all
Options +Indexes
</Directory>
ServerName testing.mydomain.com
UseCanonicalName off
HostNameLookups on
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/TEST1"
ServerName testing1.mydomain.com
<Directory "/var/www/TEST1">
allow from all
Options +Indexes
</Directory>
UseCanonicalName off
HostNameLookups on
</VirtualHost>

Do you have DNS setup for testing.mydomain.com and testing1.mydomain.com
Should not the DocumentRoot /var/www/TEST be with quotes ie:
DocumentRoot "/var/www/TEST"

Yes DNS is test up fine they both resolve to the same IP address. I will try
the quotes.

Thank you for taking the time to replay..

Sorry to say the quotes did not help.

Thank you though.....

Hi
My config uses a wildcard for the vhosts. Ports are done via the
ports.conf file
eg

NameVirtualHost *

# <site_1> vhost
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.site_1
ServerAlias site_1
DocumentRoot /var/www/site_1

<Directory "/var/www/site_1">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

# <site_2> vhost
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.site_2
ServerAlias site_2
DocumentRoot /var/www/site_2

<Directory "/var/www/site_2">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

This still did not work. I am thinking maybe I have something else going on
in the configuration other that within the <VirtualHost *> section. Anyone
have any ideas?

Thanks very much for replying.....

Hi
So you are trying to access locally? If not running a local dns you
will need to add them into your hosts file from the machine you are
accessing from eg

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx www.site_1 site_1 www.site_2 site_2

I do understand what you are saying but no I am not local. But I do run our
own DNS. I know it is not a DNS issue the DNS server resolve the domain and
host names perfectly. But what is strange is I can access this from the IP
address also. http://65.60.100.66/ and I should not be able to do that
right?

Thanks ....

Do you have a
NameVirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80

to match the address in the <VirtualHost> parts?
