Hi there Sorry for the confusion.
We have two servers with multiple hosts on. East host has it's own Host entry in Server.xml due to using a wildcard SSL certificate At the bottom of the email I used the details of the prod server ondemand.com and below I applied the Alias to different server, which I can test and reboot without the need of an outage window. I entered the Alias line in the test.lbpondemand.com host, then Stopped and Started Tomcat. I then tested access to ever one of the hosts (using the host name in IE) and everyone came back with "This page can't be displayed" I remove the alias line, stopped and started tomcat and I still received the "this page can't be displayed". I had to reboot the server for the hosts to be accessible again. To resolve the issue, I entered the Alias line and rebooted the server and the changes took effect and all the hosts worked. Do you have any idea why the stop\Start of Tomcat would cause an issue whereas the Reboot of the Server worked ok? The error logs did not show anything different between when the hosts failed on a restart of Tomcat and when I rebooted the whole server.

It is getting a bit confused and confusing here : - the latest configuration that you indicate below, does not match the previous one which you indicated previously (see even further below). - you are talking about "broke every site" (implying several "sites"). What do you mean exactly by "site" ? the "<Host ..>" tags which you list below (without the Alias) seem to point to a single "site" (if by "site" you mean one hostname). - you also do not really "broke every site". What URL were you trying to use, when *your browser* responded with "this page cannot be displayed" ? - did you look at the tomcat logfiles, when you got the error ? Maybe it provides some useful clue. - about > <Alias>companytest.lbpondemand.com</Alias> : is that hostname registered in the DNS ? (in other words : can you do "ping companytest.lbpondemand.com", and what does that respond ?) All in all, that makes it a bit hard to guess what you mean and how we could help.
