Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] Weird virtual host error
Hi,
Got a strange error to do with Apache and virtual hosts.
http://www.bioscience.co.uk and http://staging.bioscience.co.uk are both
the same machine and PHP is clearly working on the default (www...) but
not on the (only) virtual host (staging...)
<VirtualHost 62.233.101.227:80>
ServerName staging.bioscience.co.uk
DocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/staging/htdocs
CustomLog logs/staging.bioscience.co.uk-access_log combined
ErrorLog logs/staging.bioscience.co.uk-error_log
</VirtualHost>
Is this even correct? Thanks.

Hi Richard. Maybe you would like to use my httpd.conf VH
definitions as a template to setup your own VH?
# virtual host definitions
# needs to be the IP number of the network card interface
# NOT my public IP address 81.168.74.150
NameVirtualHost 10.0.0.1
#-----------------------------------------------------------------

# any required directives not set in this VH container
# will default to the global values
# set outside this or any other VH containers

and my /etc/host file looks like:
# Fedora 8 /etc/host file
#
# hosts This file describes a number of hostname-to-address
# mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem. It is mostly
# used at boot time, when no name servers are running.
# On small systems, this file can be used instead of a
# "named" name server.
# Syntax:
#
# IP-Address Full-Qualified-Hostname Short-Hostname
#
127.0.0.1 localhost
# special IPv6 addresses
::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback
fe00::0 ipv6-localnet
ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes
ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters
ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts
10.0.0.1 www.karsites.net karsites.net karsites
10.0.0.1 www.php-debuggers.net php-debuggers.net
php-debuggers
10.0.0.1 www.raised-from-the-dead.org.uk
raised-from-the-dead.org.uk
10.0.0.1 raised-from-the-dead
Using the above domain name mappings allows me to access my
virtual host definitions from localhost. Without these
mappins my machine would try an internet DNS lookup on my
own hostnames - which will not work.
