I can verify that it is working since the apache conf file for site is there. I have been banging my head on a wall with this one. I have been dropping notice functions all over the place to figure out what is going on. In my create_project define I have added the following notices: notice("secondary ip address is ${secondary_ip}") notice("project network interface is ${project_network_interface}") and get the following output on the server: notice: Scope(S_project[my_project-env]): secondary ip address is x.x.x.x notice: Scope(S_project[my_project-env]): project network interface is I guess I am running into a scope issue or something. I have also tried to move the assignment of project_network_interface in front of the "call" to the create_project define. Does the behavior I am seeing make sense? I don't know what I can do different.
