Your second rule is mostly abusing mod_rewrite - you should use
FallbackResource instead, or just add a RewriteCond before the rule to
prevent loops in the per directory context.

Re: [users@httpd] Virtual Hosting: One website doesn't work.
I'm not sure what you are asking. No, it doesn't work. That was the one I demonstrated in telnet. I did not get my screen filled with HTML, instead I got an error message. I actually copied the conf file from a working website and only renamed the ServerName and DocumentRoot, noting else. The directory, and all subdirectories have the same ownership. How come I can host seven different websites and have one that fails, even though their conf files differ only in the DocumentRoot and ServerName. IT seems unusual. I wouldn't think that I'm hosting too many websites, but 7 is (2^3)-1. Just kidding there, but sometimes I wonder.

Re: [users@httpd] Virtual Hosting: One website doesn't work.
I'm making a guess here. Are you asking whether I assign Host: as being example.com or www.example.com? Here's the script from each. They are slightly different, but the result is the same. $ telnet www.example.com 80 Trying 104.236.xxx.yyy... Connected to example.com. Escape character is '^]'. get / http/1.1 Host: www.example.com HTTP/1.0 301 Moved Permanently Date: Sat, 03 Jan 2015 17:07:37 GMT Server: Apache/2.4.10 (Ubuntu) X-Powered-By: PHP/5.5.12-2ubuntu4.1 X-Pingback: http://example.com/xmlrpc.php Location: http://example.com/ Content-Length: 0 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Connection closed by foreign host. $ cat example.com.txt $ telnet www.example.com 80 Trying 104.236.xxx.yyy... Connected to example.com. Escape character is '^]'. GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: example.com HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Date: Sat, 03 Jan 2015 17:06:38 GMT Server: Apache/2.4.10 (Ubuntu) Location: http://www.example.com// Content-Length: 317 Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 301 Moved Permanently Moved Permanently The document has moved http://www.example.com//";>here. Apache/2.4.10 (Ubuntu) Server at example.com Port 80 Connection closed by foreign host. Notice something odd here, might be a clue. The "Location:" field is assigned with a FQDN appended with '//' which doesn't seem proper to me. I'm not sure how extra slashes are dealt with in the specification, but that's not something I typically type in when typing URL's into a web browser.

Re: [users@httpd] Apache 2.4 This webpage has a redirect loop
Hi Frank,
Your second rule is mostly abusing mod_rewrite - you should use
FallbackResource instead, or just add a RewriteCond before the rule to
prevent loops in the per directory context.
OK thanks for that suggestion. I'll give FallbackResource a shot! I wasn't
actually the one to write these originally. They were originally done on an
Apache 2.2 instance. But I have to migrate the config to Apache 2.4
I am curious about how you'd handle this as a RewriteCond tho! Apache
rewrites aren't exactly my strongest area. Although I've always wanted to
get better at doing them. Do you think you could provide an example of how
you could handle that as a rewrite? Id' appreciate it, but no big deal if
you don't have the time.
Thanks,
Tim

I'm in no way familiar with how wordpress works. So this may be a wordpress configuration issue. The simplest may be to reinstall wordpress and hope it works.

Re: [users@httpd] Virtual Hosting: One website doesn't work.
Okay, it occurred to me that I never at any point expected the file xmlprc.php to load automatically. I would have guessed something like an index.php or index.html to load instead. I reinstalled wordpress, but that seemed to make no difference. All that is in my DocumentRoot directory is a single index.html, and that doesn't even load. I'm starting to wonder if this particular domain name is somehow tainted since the other sites seem to work just fine. What I noticed that is particularly weird is that my method for testing seems to be flawed. According to my method for testing via telnet gives the same results for all my sites, whereas testing with wget on my other site returns the correct page. So the lines of "get / http/1.1", "Host: example.com" seem to be an inaccurate test. Nothing is as it seems. I really thought I understood how this webserver works... I'm totally at a loss of explanation of why it just doesn't work; this shouldn't be so hard. So I did a 'wget example.info' and I get the correct webpage. I follow the same approach via telnet on port 80, as seen below, I get totally different results. What is wrong with this test that would give a different result from wget? $ telnet example.info 80 Trying 104.236.xxx.yyy... Connected to example.info. Escape character is '^]'. get / http/1.1 host: www.example.info HTTP/1.1 501 Not Implemented Date: Sun, 04 Jan 2015 02:05:32 GMT Server: Apache/2.4.10 (Ubuntu) Allow: GET,HEAD,POST,OPTIONS Content-Length: 282 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 501 Not Implemented Not Implemented get to /index.html not supported.

I thought I would implement it according to online documentation. I retyped an equivalent excerpt from my sites-available directory. ServerName www.example.com ServerAlias example.com DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/ht-docs/ When I perform the telnet 80 test, I get a "501 Not Implemented", but the wget command pulls the index.html correctly. I never trust a web browser when diagnosing a web page because they like to cache web files. I used telnet to simulate a web browser request, as explained in a blog, but it is apparently wrong...
