Unexpected virtual host behavior of Drupal sites on Apache - apache

Question

I'm running an Apache server on a CentOS 7 machine.
A month ago I created a new Drupal site (let's call it site1) under /var/www/html/site1.
Visiting http://<server-ip>/site1 yielded site1 correctly.
Today, in order to provide a test environment for a new customer, I had to create a virtual host for a new Drupal site (let's call it site2).
So I created the following vhost rule:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin test#email.com
ServerName site2.dev
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/site2
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
After that I created the site's folder /var/www/html/site2 and installed Drupal. Visiting http://site2.dev yields site2 correctly.
The problem is, if I now visit http://<server-ip>/site1, site2 is shown.
I can't figure out what might be the problem. The two sites are on completely different paths and different databases, so one shouldn't affect the other in my opinion.
Since I literally defined my first vhost today, I was wondering if someone might help me explain the issue. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Ok I missunderstood your problem and thought you had 2 domains.
Was your site1 accessed by the IP with no sub directory? In this case :
Change the DocumentRoot to point to /var/www/html then both sites will be accessed by IP/site1 and IP/site2.
If you were allready accessing site1 by the url IP/site1 then you had nothing to change and could access IP/site2 without your new virtualhost wich point only to site2 directory... .

Answer 2

Based on Laurent's answer, this is the configuration I ended up using:
# So all IP only paths continue to work
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
ServerName 10.10.10.10 # Server's IP
<Directory /var/www/html/>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
# So site2.dev points to its folder
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/site2
ServerName site2.dev
<Directory /var/www/html/site2>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
