Server :: Apache2 Virtual Host Defaulting To Default Host
Oct 30, 2009
Bit of an odd one, this. I've migrated a website from my old server to a new machine. Both servers run Ubuntu + Apache2. Both only serve a single site, apart from the default site.I've flipped the domain name to the new IP address.The trouble is that after moving the virtual host config over into sites-available, with the necessary link in sites-enabled, Apache attempts to serve from the default web root (/var/www) rather than the actual site content (in /var/www/technology). So for example, an attempt to browse.
I've just installed LAMP. http://localhost/ page works fine. I need to create some virtual hosts. Localhost page is situated in /var/www/. It's normal for me, and I wanted to created virtualhost (in /var/www/vhost1) But it doesn't open in browser. Where is my mistake?
/etc/apache2/ports.conf Code: NameVirtualHost *:80 Listen 80 <IfModule mod_ssl.c> # If you add NameVirtualHost *:443 here, you will also have to change # the VirtualHost statement in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl
My goal is a testing server with an apache virtual host for each site that I'm working on, with fairly painless setup for each new job.For example, I want http://site-a.mydomain to server this document root /home/client-a/site-a/public_html (or something to that effect)Ideally, DNS will use a wildcard to point http://anything-i-type.mydomain to the testing server, and apache will have a dynamic virtual host definition that will do a little magic so that I won't have to mess with DNS records or add a new virtual host each time I add a new site for a client. I'll worry about that when I get there, just put that out there in case anyone has any tips! for now I just have one little problem that's hurting my mood-
It looks like I've got my DNS server working just fine, so yay there- BUT my first attempt at adding a virtual host isn't working quite how I expected- meaning that site-a.mydomain now serves up the correct document root, but when you put http://site-a.mydomain into the browser's address bar, the address bar is then updated to http://10.0.1.100/site-a/public_html - bogus!! I must be missing an option like "FunnyBusiness Off" -
root@ubuntuvm:/etc/apache2/sites-available# vim client-a.mydomain <VirtualHost *:80> UseCanonicalName Off ServerName site-a.mydomain DocumentRoot /home/client-a/site-a/public_html </VirtualHost>2
How do I define the default virtual host to be served on port 80?
I have different configuration files in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ that look more or less like this:
Plus I have the namevirtualhost:80 in httpd.conf
For some reason if I connect to port 80 using the IP address or an alias not defined anywhere in apache config, the first domain configured (first alphabetically a-to-z) answers the call.
Is there any way to overwride this and set a default site?
Basically I'd like to answer with the right configuration if a precise site pre-configured is called on port 80, but if not I would like to redirect to a "default site"
I've created a virtual host and when I try to access it it displays the root of the Default Server. Running Fedora 11. This works fine in our Fedora 8, same configuration.
192.168.0.200 Default server is set to Listen 80 virtual server
Dom0 is having public IP. I read a lot of blog and tutorials about name based and IP based hostings and also about mod_proxy. But I am unable to do.
Here is what I am trying to do. I have a webserver on public IP.Which is running Xen on it. There are 4 Guest Operating systems installed on top of Dom0 which are Dom1,Dom2,Dom3,Dom4 These are application servers which are going to serve the requests that come from the main server.Which is Dom0.
All I see is "It works" on all 4 of the hosts. On my LAN on any machine on same subnet if I do [url] of Domu1 message comes
Code:
in browser from LAN gives me a message
Code: It works.
What do I need to do on Dom0 so that requests are forwarded to the appropriate DomUs apache2 is running on all of them including Dom0.Some one suggested me to go for ReverseProxy in Apache2.
apache virtual host to limit the concurrent connections of virtual hosts? Taking into account the host of each virtual user's home directory can also have more than one subdirectory, which should be restricted to a subdirectory. Is beyond the control of the operation of these sites in a subdirectory. Best local restrictions or limitations to the overall situation.
I'm having an issue with setting up the virtual hosts on my web server. I have 2 virtual hosts (example1.com, example2.com). example1.com works but example2.com is sent to the index file of example1.com. I did some searching on google and it seems the problem might be with my /etc/hosts file.
First virtual host that the second is also directed to...in sites-available/sites-enabled (note port 80 is blocked by my isp so I use 8080)
Code:
Second virtual host file
Code:
And my hosts file
Code:
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
Also I'm using a dyndns.org...would that make a difference?
Many of mails sent from my mail server that are in Queue;The main reason is deffered by domains like yahoo,aol,etc.but there is one more error that i keep getting and that is Host Unknown,Below is an example from mail log,The catch is,test mail sent on the same email id sent from my personal mail from the same server i.e. url was deliveredHowever,another mail containing client information sent from customercare@mycompanysdomain ended up in queue.
There are more examples of the same,around 20 domain have the same problem.
I have 4 domains registered through godaddy. I have a dell poweredge box with one static IP hosted somewhere. I want the 4 domain to resolve to four different sites. I have already created 4 different sites in apache with four different aliases and has enabled it.
eg alias /a /var/www/a alias /b /var/www/b alias /c /var/www/c
I tried with godaddys forward with masking option. It works but I can't hide xx.xx.xx.xx/a in the links. Whats the best approach? One limitation is I cannot use the webhosts name servers. How do I set this up with name based virtual hosting? Do I setup a DNS server in the box?
I do have a dns host name for my box which is publicy accessible. Some my.ca.examplehost.net
I'm using Apache 2.2 to host multiple subdomains using a single SSL certificate (a wildcard certificate e.g. *.mydomain.com) and, yes, it works! Everything seems to be served correctly and the browsers are pretty happy.
And you can also have the non-SSL sites (virtual hosts on port 80) on the same IP. (That's covered elsewhere)
For those that want similar functionality here's my discovery...
My configuration is like this:
ssl.conf:
Code:
I would have to say that I don't believe that this will work if you are not using a wildcard SSL certificate and having anything other than subdomains under that wildcard.
It is somewhat limited in scenario where this is useful, but for a set of company websites that should be under SSL, this can be tremedously useful when you have a single IP.
I'm running XAMPP 1.7.2 on Ubuntu 8.10 (Linux dt19.im.local 2.6.27-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 16:25:45 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux) and am using the PHP 5.3.0 Apache module as standard. For one virtual host I'd like to use PHP 5.2.X as it is part of a project which has a lot of legacy code which is not compatible with PHP 5.3.0. The virtual host configuration block and the applicable directory directive are as follows -
Code:
Checking phpinfo() output on the above virtual host (or using the default virtual host directive and accessing it via http://localhost/[SNIP]/[SNIP]/phpinfo.php rather than [url] shows PHP 5.3.0 is running. After applying minor tweaks such as adding ScriptAlias or SetEnv options the problem persists. I've Googled for a good while and have checked the permissions and the like and tried the advice of other users (XAMPP or otherwise) either resulting in PHP 5.3.0 being used or a HTTP 400 bad request/invalid URI error. I've stuck with the configuration above as this is correct according to the PHP manual.
FYI cgi-bin/php-5.2.6 is a soft symbolic link to /opt/lampp/bin/php-5.2.6 (I've added the FollowSymLinks option to the cgi-bin directory directive in httpd.conf). I've tried installing php5-cgi from the Ubuntu repos and setting it up in a similar way, to no avail. I've also tried copying the executables into the cgi-bin directory, pointing the Action line directly to bin/php-5.2.6 and dropping the -c /opt/lampp/etc/php.ini-pre1.7.2 option in the Action line. I've even tried commenting out the LoadModule lines for PHP which results in a HTTP 400 bad request/invalid URI error. This demonstrates the fact that the PHP CGI use is being ignored.
I've checked httpd.conf and the extra/httpd-*.conf files and ensured all required includes are being loaded. I know that it's probably something stupid on my part which is causing this! Given that I've tried PHP CGI builds in the Ubuntu repos I don't think this is an XAMPP-specific issue.
One of our Apache servers, version 2.2.3, is running three virtual hosts on it. However, while two are accessible, gray.mgh.harvard.edu, www.plastimatch.org, the third, cmrol.mgh.harvard.edu cannot be reached by any remote host.
I am at a loss as to why this is occurring. To that end, I am including the httpd.conf file as an attachment in the hopes someone can see what I missed, and help correct this issue.
I'm trying to figure out why Apache is ignoring SSL Cipher statements when placed inside a Virtual Host. Specifically I'm trying to disable SSLv2 and only allow SSLv3 or TLSv1
In httpd-ssl.conf I have the following
Code:
And when I try and connect, I get the expected results.
Quote:
In my virtual host statement I have
Code:
The only difference between the two is the httpd-ssl.conf has -ALL in the CIPHER, and the virtual host entry has ALL. However if I try and change the ALL statement in the virtual host entry to -ALL I get the following error in my logs & get no content.
Quote:
Why it's not working in the virtual host statement? Unfortunately as many of you are probably aware it's impossible to gain PCI certification with SSLv2 enabled.
i have linux server application based on centos 5 that run httpd daemon from /usr/local/pf/conf/httpd.conf which is generated from the /usr/local/pf/conf/templates/httpd.conf.apache22 file
the problem is every time i run my linux server application i am not able to access phpmyadmin unless i stop my linux server application which is stop it httpd daemon then start "service httpd start"
i have been told by forum moderator to create an alias for my phpmyadmin in Virtual Host but it stil dont work, i am not able access my phpmyadmin site
this is what i have done to solve this problem - open /usr/local/pf/conf/templates/httpd.conf.apache22 file then look for
<VirtualHost *:%%admin_port%%> - add Alias /phpmyadmin "/usr/share/phpmyadmin" (Failed) - add Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin (Failed) - add Alias /phpmyadmin "/usr/share/phpmyadmin/" (Failed)
[Code]....
why i still cant open my phpmyadmin site ? or why i cant run phpmyadmin together with my linux server application because it use the same daemon (httpd daemon)
I am having two domains. for ex: www.example1.com and www.example2.com. These two domains need to be hosted under one ip. Yes by configuring name based virtual host we can do that. But, my question is my first domain(www.example1.com) need to be hosted by Apache web server, and my second domain(www.example2.com) need to be hosted by Tomact. Is it possible to configure name based virtual host for a scenario like this.
I'm using Debian 5 with Exim 4 on my VPS. My purpose is to make mailboxes for each virtual host on my server. What do I have: 1. Exim is set correctly - receiving mail from [URL]... is successfull. 2. Mail for [URL]... is delivered, and the mail for [URL]... too. But [URL]... is the site written to /etc/hosts (it's localhost), and [URL]... is virtual host. But mail from both boxes writes to /var/mail/mail. Now what do I need: 1. Make mail for [URL]... store in [URL].... and mail for [URL].. store in www/Maildir. 2. Make mailboxes like [URL].... to receive mail by Thunderbird. 3. Set passwords for [URL]... and [URL]... (I don't want to enter my system user/root passwords).
But when I try to check for syntax errors tells me SSLRequire not allowed here I do not want to add SSLRequire on the main httpd.conf because I only want it for one virtual host. The rest of the virtual hosts do not need it.
I'm trying to install two instances of OCS Inventory on the same machine using virtual hosts in apache. The apache configuration for it is in it's own file and it works fine without any virtual host. If I add it apache refuses to start without giving any error message. I narrowed it down to some lines loading perl modules, and if I comment them away apache will start again. Some of the modules work, but some of the ones specific to OCS Inventory will not work. I can't understand what the difference is between loading it in a virtual host or not, it doesn't make any sense to me!
1) My Internet connection is COMCAST with a router box and one public IP address.2) My web server is Apache using 10.1.10.200 as its address.3) Now I want to add another host name (www.myhealth.com) on my server. I did DNS forwardin (with Godaddy) to my COMCAST static IP address.4) I also added (in my httpd.conf) a block for virtual hosting
i have linux server application based on centos 5 that run httpd daemon from /usr/local/pf/conf/httpd.conf which is generated from the /usr/local/pf/conf/templates/httpd.conf.apache22 file

NB : my phpmyadmin is install on /usr/share/phpmyadmin with /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf as phpmyadmin configuration file
why i still cant open my phpmyadmin site ? or why i cant run phpmyadmin together with my linux server application because it use the same daemon (httpd daemon)
Just something that struck me while working on our virtual servers today.
I have bonded 3 NICs at the host in Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS. They are using mode 0 for Round-robin. Point is to increase the speed/performance of all the servers, but mainly the fileserver. The fileserver is a virtual server running Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS on VMware Server 2.0.
1) I noticed the NIC in the slave OS reported link speed as 1000 and Im unable to change it as the NIC (virtual one) doesnt support it. Does this not really matter, as the NIC doesnt exist, and it will run at higher speeds anyway? Or do I have to remove the bond on the host, bridge all 3 interfaces from the host to the slave OS, and then make a bond in the slave OS?
2) While at it, does mode 0 only increase performance on data being sent from the host or does it also increase the available incoming bandwidth?
I installed apache server on my Fedora 12. Its showing the test page 127.0.0.1, but when I give the address 97.168.234.76 (0r www.chaalu-kam.com), it tells that the requested url could not be retrieved.
I have made the following additions to the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file
Code:
In addition to this, I have added this to my /etc/hosts file
Code:
I wanted to test the Apache server on my laptop only by putting an html file in /var/www/html and naming it as index.html. I want this index.html page to be displayed when I put www.chaalu-kam.com in my browser. What should I do? My firewall is off too
In the past I found some great help on this forum, so here goes. Bare with me because it's a long story. I'll try to be as complete as possible. I've installed and configured OpenLdap on a virtual machine with ip 192.168.39.134. I've added 2 users via LAM. In the ou WikiUsers and the domain is wiki.local.
I've then created another host with ip 192.168.39.133 with mediawiki installed on it. Then I added the extension LDAPAuthenthication. In the LdapAuthentication file I added this code (only the last paragraph is mine, I added the others to show it's location in the script):
I know I'm close because I can't register any new users or accounts on the mediawiki site. Although I could before I added the LDAP service. This is indeed all just to test and get to know how LDAP works. That's why it's all virtual in VMWare. I did not really configure anything on the LDAP, i just installed it and chose a domain (wiki.local).
