NameVirtualHost *:80 has no Virtual?

Nicolice · 06-28-2009, 08:31 AM

I just installed Fedora 11, and followed the tutorial inside howtoforge.com about the perfect web server with ISPConfig 3.

After everything has been installed, I can't access the web panel via the webpage, even with https://localhost:8080, or https://ip:8080 it just won't connect.

So I'm suspecting something wrong with my httpd.conf configuration file...which when I tried to start it...it gave me this error

Code:

Starting httpd: [Mon Jun 29 01:30:24 2009] [warn] NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:0 has no VirtualHosts
[Mon Jun 29 01:30:24 2009] [warn] NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts
[FAILED]

I'm still new in these configurations, can someone help me to solve it? Thanks!

Here's my httpd.conf, as in attachment.

Thanks a lot!

In my experience, if you are using virtual hosts you will need an entry similar to the following:

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com
    DocumentRoot /www/docs/dummy-host.example.com
    ServerName dummy-host.example.com
    ErrorLog logs/dummy-host.example.com-error_log
    CustomLog logs/dummy-host.example.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

Thanks for the reply.

I've copied over the entry, but when I tried to start httpd, it says document root does not exist. Do I need to create those directory manually or copies the existing over?

DocumentRoot is the root directory of your web site
it's the directory that you will place all files that will be accessible through your site(including index.html)

Thanks for the reply. I haven't created any pages yet but is there any way to temporary creates the DocumentRoot of it? Or should I copy over some files from other place? Thanks.

The default in F11 is /var/www/html: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1216638

Anyway, thanks for all the help guys, apparently there's indeed some misconfiguration within my httpd.conf...after a search and patiently edit and test...finally I solved it...but there's one other stuff came out tho...

Mods can you please close this thread? Thanks
