Apache2 VirtualHost non-recurring Directory
 

Hi, I didn't know exactly where to put this, but here it goes:

For the record, I have Apache2 on Ubuntu.

OK so I have a "svn" subdomain for SVN repositories. The repositories are actual separate repositories, not a big one for all. So I'm using SVNPath not SVNParentPath (please don't suggest this as a possible fix).

The problem is I want to be able to list the repositories (or even put a blank page for that matter) at svn.mydomain.com. All repositories have a svn.mydomain.com/myrepository path with a VirtualHost for each. So when I create another VirtualHost just for the / path, it overrides all the SVN VirtualHosts, as it covers / and all sub-directories.

I would like a way to set that VirtualHost to affect just the root directory, without the sub-directories. Or to make the SVN VirtualHosts override it.

Either way, is this possible? What approach should I take? Thanks!

Are you using the NameVirtualHost directive?

I haven't configured vhosts with names like svn.mydomain.com/myrepositorypath. Anotherwords, I am not sure if apache will read the myrepositorypath part of the servername.
But if it will, then using NameVirtualHost should work for you.

NameVirtualHost 123.123.123.123:80

<VirtualHost 123.123.123.123:80>
ServerName svn.mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /home/where-ever-1
...
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 123.123.123.123:80>
DocumentRoot /home/where-ever-2
ServerName svn.mydomain.com/myrepositorypath
...
</VirtualHost>
