I have a working site at on the Top level of a domain, I now want to add a subdomain on the same domain and the same server.
The files for this site are located in the public html folder (/var/www/html)
I have the following virtualhosts/directory config in httpd.conf
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin support.portal#somesite.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/joomla3
ServerName support.somesite.com
ErrorLog logs/support.somesite.com_error.log
CustomLog logs/support.somesite.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin support.portal#somesite.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/moodle
ServerName support.somesite.com/moodle
ErrorLog logs/moodle.error.log
CustomLog logs/moodle.access.log common
</VirtualHost>
<Directory "/var/www/html/moodle">
DirectoryIndex index.php
AcceptPathInfo on
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
No errors are reported on the start/restart of httpd
Nothing is reported in the httpd error log. The below entry is shown in the Access log so the request is reaching the webserver but appears to be not being handled properly by the webserver.
192.168.4.202 - - [05/Jan/2015:12:49:14 +0000] "GET /moodle HTTP/1.1" 404 290
I have configured something similar before but I can't figure out the problem here. I might have missed something obvious, Can you see where the problem is, Thanks?
I am running CentOS 6.5 for reference.

I want to set up the subdomain "shop" on my Apache 2.2 server on Windows/XAMPP and it redirects to "index.html" if I enter "shop.localhost" as the URL but once I try to connect via my domain "sv443.net" it redirects to my document root ("/index.html" instead of "/shop/index.html"). Connecting to "sv443.net/shop/" works fine though and even redirects to "index.html".
I'm using Cloudflare to handle the DNS stuff and added these records (I cut off the IP address part):
This is my httpd-vhosts.conf:
NameVirtualHost localhost:80
<VirtualHost localhost:80>
ServerName localhost
ServerAdmin sven.fehler#web.de
DocumentRoot "c:/users/sv443/desktop/mamp htdocs"
<Directory "c:/users/sv443/desktop/mamp htdocs">
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost shop.localhost:80>
ServerName shop.localhost
ServerAdmin sven.fehler#web.de
DocumentRoot "c:/users/sv443/desktop/mamp htdocs/shop"
<Directory "c:/users/sv443/desktop/mamp htdocs/shop">
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
And this is my hosts.dat:
(only comments)
2.205.169.73 sv443.net
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost shop.localhost
Also I added this .htaccess file to the shop directory to redirect to the index.html if a 403 or 404 is encountered - removing this file doesn't fix my problem:
ErrorDocument 403 /shop/index.html
ErrorDocument 404 /shop/index.html
If someone tries to connect I get this error message in the Apache error.log:
AH01630: client denied by server configuration: C:/Users/Sv443/Desktop/MAMP htdocs/shop/.html
Thanks for any help!
If you can get content by explicitly specifying "/index.html" but not with "/", you should add DirectoryIndex index.html in your configuration, after loading mod_dir. This will define the default file to look for when it is not specified.
For your VirtualHost:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias www.example.com
ServerAlias example.com
LogLevel debug
CustomLog "logs/example_access_log" combined
ErrorLog "logs/example_error_log"
[... REST OF CONFIGURATION ...]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName shop.localhost
ServerAlias shop.example.com
LogLevel debug
CustomLog "logs/shop_access_log" combined
ErrorLog "logs/shop_error_log"
[... REST OF CONFIGURATION ...]
</VirtualHost>
Apache decides which VirtualHost to use for the request based on the domain in the request. If it does not find a match, it uses the first one in the file (here localhost). Therefore you are not pointing to your "shop" sub-domain, unless you specify it in the VirtualHost for it, via ServerAlias ....
I am using EasyPHP (version 16.1.1) for Apache server (installed version 2.4.18 x86). I need to add a new VirtualHost, so now the whole VirtualHost section of httpd.conf looks like this:
# VIRTUAL HOSTS
## Virtualhost localweb
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
DocumentRoot "C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-Devserver-16.1\eds-www"
ServerName 127.0.0.1
<Directory "C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-Devserver-16.1\eds-www">
Options FollowSymLinks Indexes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order deny,allow
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Deny from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:8080>
UseCanonicalName Off
ServerAdmin marekbuchtela#gmail.com
ServerName posis
ServerAlias posis.tovarna
VirtualDocumentRoot "C:\Users\marek\is\tovarna\public"
</VirtualHost>
The first one is the default one made by EasyPHP, the second one is added by me. However in this setup, the Apache won't start. When I remove the second VirtualHost, everything works fine, but with it, it just won't start at all. I have checked the error log and there is no output at all.
Any ideas why is this happening/how to fix it?
Thanks
Switch VirtualDocumentRoot "C:\Users\marek\is\tovarna\public"for DocumentRoot "C:\Users\marek\is\tovarna\public"
If by any chance you keep getting the error, show error_log output
There is another instance other than the answer given by ezra-s as to why EasyPHP server won't start and the Apache error log is empty.
When declaring paths in the vhosts file, it is important that the directories referenced in those paths exist. If you provide the following VirtualHost information, for example:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "D:/MyApp/public_html"
ServerName myapp.local
ErrorLog "D:/MyApp/logs/error.log"
CustomLog "D:/MyApp/logs/apache.log" common
</VirtualHost>
...but you don't have a D: drive, or the directories D:/MyApp/ and D:/MyApp/logs/ don't exist, then you'll get a "silent fail" in Apache when starting the HTTP server from the EasyPHP console.
I just realized that nothing else on WAMP is accessible unless it's under the virtual host alias. For example: if I name my vHost 'mysite.dev', I can only access mysite.dev and everything else gives a 403 forbidden error. If I add a vHost called anothersite.dev in addition to mysite.dev, only those sites can be accessed. The only thing under localhost that I can access is PHPMyAdmin. I have uncommented the line that includes vHosts.conf in the Apache httpd.conf file. This problem does not happen until I modify the vHosts.conf file. Here is the config for the other files:
vHosts.conf:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#dummy-host.example.com
DocumentRoot "c:/Apache24/docs/dummy-host.example.com"
ServerName dummy-host.example.com
ServerAlias www.dummy-host.example.com
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#dummy-host2.example.com
DocumentRoot "c:/Apache24/docs/dummy-host2.example.com"
ServerName dummy-host2.example.com
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#dummy-host2.example.com
DocumentRoot "W:/wamp/www/mysite"
ServerName mysite.dev
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
Windows hosts file:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 mysite.dev
Ok first, the first 2 VHOST definitions in the httpd-vhost.conf file (vhost and vhost2) are examples, supplied by Apache, to help you get started and of course point to folders that do not exist so and should be removed.
Second When you create a Virtual Host you should include the access privilages for the VHOST in a <Directory....> group.
Third, you should always create a VHOST for localhost as once VHOSTs are created Apache ignores the localhost definition in httpd.conf
So your httpd-vhost.conf file should look like this
# Should be the first VHOST definition so that it is the default virtual host
# Also access rights should remain restricted to the local PC and the local network
# So that any random ip address attack will recieve an error code and not gain access
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#homemail.net
DocumentRoot "W:/wamp/www"
ServerName localhost
<Directory "W:/wamp/www">
AllowOverride All
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "W:/wamp/www/mysite"
ServerName mysite.dev
ErrorLog "logs/mysite.dev-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/mysite.dev-access.log" common
<Directory "W:/wamp/www/mysite">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Once you have done this, you now need to edit your c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file to look like this. You need to have admin privilages to edit this file, also some anti virus suites also protect this file, so you may need to stop that protection temporarily in order to amend this file.
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 mysite.dev
::1 localhost
::1 mysite.dev
Then restart the dnscache to pick up these changes, from a command line also started with admin privilages.
net stop dnscache
net start dnscache

I have a web server with a website and i want to add another address for pre-production use.
Here the existant:
httpd.conf:
ServerAdmin support#toto.com
ServerName www.toto.com:80
DocumentRoot "/home/tutu/var/www/html"
modules/vhost.conf:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin support#toto.com
ServerName www.toto.com:80
DirectoryIndex index.php
ErrorLog /home/tutu/var/log/httpd/error-mod_log
LogLevel warn
CustomLog /home/tutu/var/log/httpd/access-mod_log common-cookie
<Location /server-status>
SetHandler server-status
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
And I have tried to add another VirtualHost but the new address not working:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin support#toto.com
ServerName www2.toto.com:80
DirectoryIndex index.php
ErrorLog /home/tutu/var/log/httpd/error-www2_log
LogLevel warn
CustomLog /home/tutu/var/log/httpd/access-www2_log common-cookie
DocumentRoot "/home/tutu/var/www2/html"
</VirtualHost>
The address www2.toto.com is not working.
Have you an idea?
Thanks
Have you added www2.toto.com to DNS?
It's not added to public DNS yet. (But www.toto.com is)
"Not working" is not very specific. Do you get the default Apache web-page for that site or do you not reach the server? If it's the latter, DNS lookup is likely your real problem, not the Apache config.
The Apache-config looks good, but you should not need to specify :80 as the alias port.
I am trying to set virtual hosts for two Zend Framework applications. I started by changing the system32 hosts file.
It contains the following lines now:
127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 quickstart
After that, I proceeded with changing the httpd-vhosts.conf file. Its current content:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin postmaster#dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "G:\workspace\Andrew\ProjManer\public"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias localhost
ErrorLog "logs/localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/localhost-access.log" combined
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin postmaster#dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "G:\workspace\Andrew\quickstart\public"
ServerName quickstart
ServerAlias quickstart
ErrorLog "logs/quickstart-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/quickstart-access.log" combined
</VirtualHost>
If I don't add the virtual host with localhost first, I get a "Access forbidden 403 Error message".
The problem now is that both point to the same location, the localhost. How am I supposed to get the second virtual host working? I used the flushdns also.
You don't need the ServerAlias in them unless you want say quickstart2 to go to quickstart. In that case you will do ServerAlias quickstart2. You get access forbidden because your document root in your httpd.conf doesn't have an index.php or that virtualhost doesn't have an index.php and you have -Indexes set
Other than that the virtualhost and hosts file look fine. Try restarting your browser and restarting apache.
