I agree. with that observation..not finding virtual hosts....I followed this example from the debian tutorials: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/412 Changing the www.example.com, .net, .org to match my domain names.
I created a file in /etc/apache2/conf.d/virtual.conf which contains exactly this: # # Running multiple virtual hosts NameVirtualHost * # EOF My understand is that the wildcard '*' will match any incoming page request, and the server name is part of the page request packet from the browser client. So then, Apache will have a name string to match....but, from what file does it do the matching? I assume that it goes to each file in the sites-available directory that is made 'live' by the sites-enabled directory (via the symbolic link....) True? Perhaps I have a rogue domain name running around somewhere.....in some config file... Clarification please: 'host name' is not the same as 'ServerName' ?? True?? I am getting confused in the mapping I think... If I type 'hostname' I get: ubuntuserver.homeunix.com If I type 'hostname -fqd' I get: localhost the FQDNs I want to match to (as specified in webhosting at dyndns) are: 2150sunshine.homeip.net 5511phillips.homeip.net 5513phillips.homeip.net All of them map from my isp generated domain 24.xxx.xxx.xxx to my server box local ip: 192.168.0.110. So, the *only* place I should have the FQDNs that I want to serve are in my site-enabled 'configuration file' that corresponds to each FQDN? Correct? and default should not contain any of the FQDNs, Correct? -John On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 12:35 PM, Tom Evans <tevans...@googlemail.com>wrote: > On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 4:58 PM, John Hudak <jjhu...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Yes, that is what is causing me to scratch my head....Why is it looking > for > > '/htdocs'.... > > > > The log files in the /logs directory are there for each namebased > domain.
