[SOLVED] Apache port redirection? Vhosts

JimmyTaylor · 03-25-2011, 02:18 AM

Hi all,

I'm running a server with Ubuntu 10.04 installed. I recently set up a VirtualHost (I'll call it my.website.com), like I have in the past without any problems. But this time, I'm stumped. When I connect to my.website.com, it should hit port 80, right? It doesn't; rather, it hits port 8000. I don't have any rewrites/redirections (I checked wherever possible) and checked apache2.conf (httpd.conf is empty). Below are the Vhosts (the third Vhost is the one I set up):

Code:

NameVirtualHost 210.220.230.240:80
NameVirtualHost 210.220.230.241:80

<VirtualHost 210.220.230.240:80>
        ServerName log.website.com
        ServerAlias log.website.com
	DocumentRoot /home/website/public_html/logs
	ServerAdmin webmaster@website.com
        UseCanonicalName Off

Oh yeah, ports.conf doesn't have a listen on 8000, in case you are wondering.

It surely seems like a redirection, and if it is, what's causing it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

if it's a redirection you'll see a 302 response. Easiset way to be sure is to curl -v the domain name, as that will just dump the first response, so if you are being redirected you'll see it there.

Thanks for the response, acid_kewpie.

I did what you said and it does connect to port 80. But when I pop the domain into the browser, it tries to connect to 8000. Any other suggestions?

Thanks again!

By Jove, it hit me right after I typed my post above.

I decided to blame Firefox for it, and tried IE and Safari. Guess what? It worked!

I need to find out why Firefox is messing up. Also, I need to start verifying things like this on multiple browsers. :P

Thanks again!

Hi,

Comment out "UseCanonicalName Off" so apache uses the default (that is "On") and clear firefox cache.

Regards

It will always connect to port 80, it's impossible not to without specifying otherwise. The issue is, what came back?
