Windows/Apache: virtualhosts displaying same site - HTML Forums

Horus_Kol · 04-30-2009, 07:50 AM

Windows hosts file

Code:

127.0.0.1       horuskol.dev
127.0.0.1       wp-test.dev

Apache httpd-vhosts.conf

Code:

NameVirtualHost *:80
Include C:/Server/Apache2.2/conf/extra/vhosts/*.conf

and my two host files:

horuskol.conf

Code:

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.100>
    
    ServerAdmin stuart@horuskol.co.uk
    ServerName horuskol.dev
    
    ErrorLog F:\projects\horuskol\logs\error.log
    TransferLog F:\projects\horuskol\logs\access.log
    
    DocumentRoot F:\projects\horuskol\public_html
    
    <Directory F:\projects\horuskol\public_html>
        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow from All
        
        Options +FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

wptest.conf

Code:

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.100>
    
    ServerAdmin stuart@horuskol.co.uk
    ServerName wp-test.dev
    
    ErrorLog F:\projects\wp-test\logs\error.log
    TransferLog F:\projects\wp-test\logs\access.log
    
    DocumentRoot F:\projects\wp-test\wp
    
    <Directory F:\projects\wp-test\wp>
        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow from All
        
        Options +FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

when I request http://wp-test.dev/ I get the content for horuskol.dev - and when request horuskol.dev I get content, but some odd behaviour (possibly cookie related).

been staring and staring and have no idea myself - any ideas why wp-test is displaying horuskol content?

a colleague found the problem - and i read around a bit more...

the fix was:

Code:

<virtualhost *:80>

although, reading around, I'm still not sure why:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod...amevirtualhost
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod...ml#virtualhost

these seem to imply you can set NameVirtualHost to *:80 and then restrict at the virtualhost level..
also discovered HTTPD will throw an error when you restart with multiple IPs in NameVirtualHost
