Apache Virtual Server

www.teov.org is the main address here at home but I would like www.loudhead.org to by managed by the same machine. I would like to host the files within; /home/bkeating/lh/

this is what i got in the /etc/httpd/conf/Vhosts.conf file:

NameVirtualHost loudhead.org
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.loudhead.org
DocumentRoot /home/bkeating/lh
</VirtualHost>

and

www.loudhead.org check it out for yourself. it's b0rked

what am I doing wrong?

NameVirtualHost www.teov.org:80

<VirtualHost www.teov.org:80>
ServerName www.teov.org
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost www.loudhead.org:80>
ServerName www.loudhead.org
DocumentRoot /home/bkeating/lh
</VirtualHost>

I think the key to the problem is that everything in your file must be a virtualhost

also the first one in the list should be the default, which will be used if unmatched by any others.

the :80 is used so there is no conflict with the port 443 virtualhosts that are specified in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf

you could also add :80 to your servername if you want, this is shown on the error pages

you may want one for loudhead.org too, like this

<VirtualHost www.loudhead.org:80>
ServerName www.loudhead.org
DocumentRoot /home/bkeating/lh
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost loudhead.org:80>
ServerName loudhead.org
DocumentRoot /home/bkeating/lh
</VirtualHost>

or if the path is the same use ServerAlias
