Hi everyone !
I am setting up a webserver, and have pretty much got the domain name working after following this tutorial http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/412 on virtual hosting.

ok so i can reach my domain using domainexample.com in the browser but if i use www.domainexample.com I thought id try to setup another virtual host pointing to the same doc root (using the www) but that didnt seem to work, anyone have any ideas?

No. ServerName www.domainexample.com, ServerAlias domainexample.com. It's one virtual host.
dns for www.domainexample.com configured correctly?

Hi troop !

this is my virtual host file

<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
ServerName www.exampledomain.com
ServerAlias exampledomain.com

# Indexes + Directory Root.
DirectoryIndex index.html
DocumentRoot /var/www/exampledomain.com/htdocs/

# CGI Directory
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/exampledomain.com/cgi-bin/
<Location /cgi-bin>
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>


# Logfiles
ErrorLog /var/www/exampledomain.com/logs/error.log
CustomLog /var/www/exampledomain.com/logs/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

I can get to the domain via typing exampledomain.com but not www.exampledomain.com which I kinda expected, but have no idea how to make it so, sorry if im not making sence.. no sleep, long time.

Config appear correct.
output of "# host www.exampledomain.com" shows right ip?
What in /var/www/exampledomain.com/logs/access.log?

hmm you may be onto something troop, I have a feeling my dns hasnt propagated fully yet, I might leave it for a day and see what happens.
Thanks for your help )
