Hello,

I reviewed the information in a forum search on this, and even after implementing it, I'm still getting something wrong.

I'm trying to set up some virtual hosts just for local development and testing. I have localhost and I'd like that to remain a more or less pristine environment (it still has all the international Apache index.html files in it currently). I have a second virtual host document root that just consists of htdocs and an index.html file that says "Hi, Mom!"

So, onto the gory details.
In /etc/apache2/conf/vhosts/vhosts.conf:
Code:

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/localhost
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName gyldenholt
DocumentRoot /var/www/gyldenholt
</VirtualHost>


I have gyldenholt in my /etc/hosts file resolving to 127.0.0.1, otherwise Firefox does a search and resolves to www.gyldenholt.org, which is not what I want.

In commonapache2.conf, I verified that I have "UseCanonicalName Off" set.

In apache2.conf, I have the line that includes conf/vhosts/vhosts.conf uncommented.

If I UNCOMMENT this line, everything resolves to /var/www/localhost/htdocs/index.html, even the gyldenholt address. So I'm relatively sure the basic setup is working alright.

I do not have ./htdocs listed in the VirtualHosts up above, because as far as I can tell, from /etc/vhosts/webapp-config, the server EXPECTS htdocs automatically, so I didn't add it.

Currently for localhost and gyldenholt, I get a 403 Forbidden error.

Any ideas out there? Like I said, the stuff in the forums had good info, and is probably preventing other problems, but I haven't figured this one out yet.

Regards,
Remillard

you need to set permissions in commonapache2.conf like this
Code:
<Directory /var/www/localhost/>
    Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    <IfModule mod_access.c>
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
    </IfModule>
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/gyldenholt/>
    Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    <IfModule mod_access.c>
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
    </IfModule>
</Directory>

Also make sure your files and directories have the right permissions, files need to be at least r-- and directories need r-x for the apache user

I don't know, but try adding /htdocs anyhow and see if that works.

Try...
Code:
chmod a+r /var/www/gyldenholt/ -R


...and see if that does any good.

Alright. I've tried the things suggested, but haven't had any luck. I still get incorrect behavior. Here's what I did.

1) I modified commonapache2.conf as nobspangle recommended.
2) I verified the /var/www directories all had read access ("chmod -R a+r *" at /var/www)

At this point, http://localhost/ and http://gyldenholt/ would both bring up a 403 Forbidden error.

3) I went into vhosts.conf and added /htdocs to the direcotory names.

At this point, both http://localhost and http://gyldenholt now serve the index.html file that is in /var/www/localhost/htdocs. I get no differentiation between them.

I will post the totality of apache2.conf, commonapache2.conf, vhosts.conf, and webapps-config and maybe something will jump out at a reader (a code mugging if you will.)

apache2.conf
Code:

### /etc/apache2/conf/apache2.conf
### $Id: apache2.conf,v 1.1 2004/03/22 21:17:57 stuart Exp $
###
### Main Configuration Section
### You really shouldn't change these settings unless you're a guru
###
ServerRoot /usr/lib/apache2
#ServerName localhost
#LockFile /etc/apache2/apache2.lock
PidFile /var/run/apache2.pid
ErrorLog logs/error_log
LogLevel warn
DocumentRoot /var/www/localhost/htdocs

I just noticed this reviewing the post. Is it possible that this DocumentRoot is overriding all the others??

commonapache2.conf
Code:

### /etc/apache2/conf/commonapache2.conf
### $Id: commonapache2.conf,v 1.5 2004/07/08 16:27:12 zul Exp $
###
### Common server configuration.
###
User apache
Group apache

###
### ServerAdmin: Your address, where problems with the server should be
### e-mailed.  This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
### as error documents.
###
ServerAdmin root@localhost

###
### DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
### documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but
### symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.
### DO NOT MODIFY THIS ONE, USE apache2.conf.
###
#DocumentRoot /var/www/localhost/htdocs

###
### Each directory to which Apache has access, can be configured with respect
### to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that
### directory (and its subdirectories).
###
### First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
### permissions.  Also, for security, we disable indexes globally.
###
### Restricted set of options:
###
<Directory />
  Options -All -Multiviews
  AllowOverride None
  <IfModule mod_access.c>
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
  </IfModule>
</Directory>

###
### Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow
### particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as
### you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it
### below.
###
<Directory /var/www/localhost/htdocs>
   Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
   AllowOverride All
   <IfModule mod_access.c>
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
   </IfModule>
</Directory>

<Directory /var/www/gyldenholt/htdocs>
   Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
   AllowOverride All
   <IfModule mod_access.c>
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
   </IfModule>
</Directory>


###
### UserDir: The name of the directory which is appended onto a user's home
### directory if a ~user request is received.
###
<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
    UserDir public_html
</IfModule>

###
### DirectoryIndex: Name of the file or files to use as a pre-written HTML
### directory index.  Separate multiple entries with spaces.
###
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php index.php3 index.shtml index.cgi index.pl index.htm Default.htm default.htm
</IfModule>

###
### AccessFileName: The name of the file to look for in each directory
### for access control information.
###
AccessFileName .htaccess

###
### The following lines prevent .htaccess files from being viewed by
### Web clients.  Since .htaccess files often contain authorization
### information, access is disallowed for security reasons.  Comment
### these lines out if you want Web visitors to see the contents of
### .htaccess files.  If you change the AccessFileName directive above,
### be sure to make the corresponding changes here.
###
### Also, folks tend to use names such as .htpasswd for password
### files, so this will protect those as well.
###
<IfModule mod_access.c>
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
</Files>
</IfModule>

###
### CacheNegotiatedDocs: By default, Apache sends "Pragma: no-cache" with each
### document that was negotiated on the basis of content. This asks proxy
### servers not to cache the document. Uncommenting the following line disables
### this behavior, and proxies will be allowed to cache the documents.
###
#CacheNegotiatedDocs

###
### UseCanonicalName:  (new for 1.3)  With this setting turned on, whenever
### Apache needs to construct a self-referencing URL (a URL that refers back
### to the server the response is coming from) it will use ServerName and
### Port to form a "canonical" name.  With this setting off, Apache will
### use the hostname:port that the client supplied, when possible.  This
### also affects SERVER_NAME and SERVER_PORT in CGI scripts.
###
UseCanonicalName Off

###
### TypesConfig describes where the mime.types file (or equivalent) is
### to be found.
###
<IfModule mod_mime.c>
    TypesConfig conf/mime.types
</IfModule>

###
### DefaultType is the default MIME type the server will use for a document
### if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.
### If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is
### a good value.  If most of your content is binary, such as applications
### or images, you may want to use "application/octet-stream" instead to
### keep browsers from trying to display binary files as text.
###
DefaultType text/plain

###
### The mod_mime_magic module allows the server to use various hints from the
### contents of the file itself to determine its type.  The MIMEMagicFile
### directive tells the module where the hint definitions are located.
### mod_mime_magic is not part of the default server (you have to add
### it yourself with a LoadModule [see the DSO paragraph in the 'Global
### Environment' section], or recompile the server and include mod_mime_magic
### as part of the configuration), so it's enclosed in an <IfModule> container.
### This means that the MIMEMagicFile directive will only be processed if the
### module is part of the server.
###
<IfModule mod_mime_magic.c>
    MIMEMagicFile conf/magic
</IfModule>

###
### HostnameLookups: Log the names of clients or just their IP addresses
### e.g., www.apache.org (on) or 204.62.129.132 (off).
### The default is off because it'd be overall better for the net if people
### had to knowingly turn this feature on, since enabling it means that
### each client request will result in AT LEAST one lookup request to the
### nameserver.
###
HostnameLookups Off

###
### EnableMMAP: Control whether memory-mapping is used to deliver
### files (assuming that the underlying OS supports it).
### The default is on; turn this off if you serve from NFS-mounted
### filesystems.  On some systems, turning it off (regardless of
### filesystem) can improve performance; for details, please see
### http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#enablemmap
###
EnableMMAP on

###
### The following directives define some format nicknames for use with
### a CustomLog directive (see below).
###
<IfModule mod_log_config.c>
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined

# End of Log directives.

###
### ServerTokens
### This directive configures what you return as the Server HTTP response
### Header. The default is 'Full' which sends information about the OS-Type
### and compiled in modules.
### Set to one of:  Full | OS | Minor | Minimal | Major | Prod
### where Full conveys the most information, and Prod the least.
###
ServerTokens Full

###
### Optionally add a line containing the server version and virtual host
### name to server-generated pages (error documents, FTP directory listings,
### mod_status and mod_info output etc., but not CGI generated documents).
### Set to "EMail" to also include a mailto: link to the ServerAdmin.
### Set to one of:  On | Off | EMail
###
ServerSignature On

### Aliases: Add here as many aliases as you need (with no limit). The format is
### Alias fakename realname
###
<IfModule mod_alias.c>

    # example, only "/icons/"..
    #
    Alias /icons/ /var/www/localhost/icons/
    Alias /doc /usr/share/doc

    #
    # ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
    # ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that

    # run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the client.
    # The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias directives as to
    # Alias.

### Action lets you define media types that will execute a script whenever

### pathnames for oft-used CGI file processors.

#Action handler-name /cgi-script/location

###
### Putting this all together, we can internationalize error responses.
###
### We use Alias to redirect any /error/HTTP_<error>.html.var response to
### our collection of by-error message multi-language collections.  We use
### includes to substitute the appropriate text.
###
### You can modify the messages' appearance without changing any of the
### default HTTP_<error>.html.var files by adding the line:
###
###   Alias /error/include/ "/your/include/path/"
###
### which allows you to create your own set of files by starting with the
### /include/ files and copying them to /your/include/path/,
### even on a per-VirtualHost basis.  The default include files will display
### your Apache version number and your ServerAdmin email address regardless
### of the setting of ServerSignature.
###
### The internationalized error documents require mod_alias, mod_include
### and mod_negotiation.  To activate them, uncomment the following 30 lines.
###
#    Alias /error/ "/var/www/localhost/error/"
#
#    <Directory "/var/www/localhost/error">

#
#    2) local redirects
#ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html
#  to redirect to local URL /missing.html
#ErrorDocument 404 "/cgi-bin/missing_handler.pl"
#  N.B.: You can redirect to a script or a document using server-side-includes.
#
#    3) external redirects
#ErrorDocument 402 http://www.example.com/subscription_info.html
#  N.B.: Many of the environment variables associated with the original
#  request will *not* be available to such a script.

vhosts.conf
Code:

################# vhosts.conf
#This is where we store the VirtualHosts configuration.
#
#Since Apache 1.3.19, we modified the setup to include some nice tricks:
#
#- Added SuExecUserGroup [user] [group] directive so VirtualHosts now work with
#  suexec directive. If set, Apache will run all cgi scripts under that
#  user and group (provided the uid and gid are > 1000 for security). The
#  directories and cgi files *must* belong to that user/group for the
#  feature to work
#- We added the Setenv VLOG directive. This works in conjunction with
#  the CustomLog in commonapache2.conf. When Setenv VLOG is set, apache will
#  create a /var/log/apache2/VLOG-YYYY-MM-<ServerName>.log instead of logging
#  to access_log. Use this instead of defining a special logfile for
#  each vhost, otherwise you eat up file descriptors.
#- You can also specify a path for the VLOG for each Vhost, for example,
#  to place the logs in each user's directory. However, if you want to
#  use the file for accounting, place it in a directory owned by root,
#  otherwise the user will be able to erase it.
#- I suggest only including the ErrorLog *only* if the vhost will use
#  cgi scripts. Again, it saves file descriptors!

# we have a problem when users upgrade webapp-config.  It turns out that
# they don't explicitly upgrade webapp-config ... instead, webapp-config
# gets because it is a dependency for a web-based package.
#
# unfortunately, this means that any changes to this config file do not
# get installed (through etc-update or equivalent) until after the web-
# based package has been installed.  We end up trying to install the
# package using a partial install of webapp-config
#
# how can we work around this?
#
# the only way to work around this is to put some sort of version-control
# marker in this config file.  webapp-config and this file must agree on
# what this marker is, otherwise webapp-config will refuse to work

WA_CONF_VERSION=2

Thanks for all the help so far. This is truly confusing.

I thought I'd throw this out there at the top of the list again, in case someone had some ideas. I put the whole of apache2.conf and others up in the previous post. Is there something quirky about them?

Maybe it's just me, but why would you put "localhost" in the virtual host file? "localhost" is defined by default (ie. root level DocumentRoot directive), try removing the localhost definition from your virtual host file. Also, try adding a real IP address (instead of 127.0.0.1) for your virtual domain in the /etc/hosts file, I don't think virtual domains will work off the loopback interface.

All hosts are, if they aren't explicitly defined in a VirtualHost directive. And just to be a safe side, there shouldn't be any root level DocumentRoot directives on a VirtualHost server.

Yes, they do work.

To Remillard:
Btw, didn't I solve this problem yesterday? Did Jazzer just bring up an old thread? :)

Yeah, this was my original thread. While it was growing stale I was doing more debug and came up with the 2nd post :).

just a quick observation... (and maybe i am saying a lot of bullshit :roll: )

you are trying to create a virtual host on /var/www/domain, but on apache2.conf you tell apache that the document root is /var/www/localhost/htdocs ... maybe it is related to that? maybe you need to put the document root to /var/www for that to work...
