I have domain1.com and domain2.com both pointing to the same ip. I want each domain to have it's own web site but use only one server. I have a debian server with Apache version 1.3.33. With the current config, both domains pull up the same site (/home/www/domain1.com/). What's wrong with it?

Thanks for any help.

(snippet from httpd.conf)

NameVirtualHost *

<VirtualHost *:*>
ServerName domain1.com
DocumentRoot /home/www/domain1.com/
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:*>
ServerName domain2.com
DocumentRoot /home/www/domain1.com/
</VirtualHost>

Um... you have domain1.com as the docroot for both virtual hosts in your snippet. Is that a typo when posting, or is it the real problem? That would cause the behavior you are seeing.

--Barry

Yeah... you'll need to set the DocumentRoot variable to two different locations. If that wasn't a typo, though, it should work.

unfortunately, it was a typo. Sorry. Here's the whole config because I can't figure this one out. I've changed the real domain names to domain1.com and domain2.com just for this posting.

### Section 3: Virtual Hosts

<VirtualHost *:*>
#ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.com
DocumentRoot /home/apache/html/drew/
ServerName domain1.com
#ErrorLog logs/host.some_domain.com-error.log
#CustomLog logs/host.some_domain.com-access.log common

<VirtualHost *:*>

ServerName domain2.com
#ErrorLog logs/host.some_domain.com-error.log
#CustomLog logs/host.some_domain.com-access.log common
</VirtualHost>

The way you have it set up, it should work. The following is all I can think of for now.

What address (name) are you using when trying to get to the second server? If you type "domain2.com", it should work. However, if you type "www.domain2.com", you will get the domain1 page. Since domain1 is listed first, any requests which do not have an *exact* match will default to displaying the domain1 page. To include multiple possibilities for names in a VirtualHost section, use the ServerAlias directive, placed within the appropriate VirtualHost section:

ServerAlias domain2.com *.domain2.com

I hope that helps.

--Barry

Nice. That wasn't exactly what was happening but it fixed my problem anyway. It works great and that's probably a better configuration anyway.

Thanks a lot.
Drew

Awesome! I'm glad it helped.
