[users@httpd] Mixed VirtualDocumentRoot and VirtualHost directives

I have a very stable server that's been happily running a number of 
name-based virtual hosts with nothing more than:

UseCanonicalName Off
VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/html/%0

This responds correctly to www.example.com, example.com, example.net and 
anything else defined in the VirtualDocumentRoot directories.

However now I'm running YaCY (P2P web search) which listens on port 8090 
and does not exist as a location in the filesystem, and I'd like Apache 
to proxy all requests for search.example.com to 127.0.0.1:8090.

I've tried adding the code below, however this breaks the 
VirtualDocumentRoot and the server no longer serves the other virtualhosts.


<VirtualHost *:80>
         ServerName search.example.com
         ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com

         ProxyRequests Off

         <Proxy *>
                 Order deny,allow
                 Allow from all
         </Proxy>

         ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8090/
         ProxyPassReverse / http:/127.0.0.1:8090/
</VirtualHost>


Anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Terry

apachectl -S was very helpful, thanks!

For some reason, it also needed a NameVirtualHost to stop complaining 
about overlaps. Not sure why.

In any case, here's the working config in case anybody ever needs it (or 
I need it again sometime) 8-)

Thanks again for the help!

Terry


ServerAdmin postmaster@example.com
ServerName www.example.com
NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
         ServerName %0
        # ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
         VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/html/%0
</VirtualHost>


<VirtualHost *:80>
         ServerName search.example.com

         ProxyRequests Off

         <Proxy search.example.com>
                 Order deny,allow
                 Allow from all
         </Proxy>

         ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8090/
         ProxyPassReverse / http:/127.0.0.1:8090/
</VirtualHost>

Add a vhost preceding this w/ your VirtualDocumentRoot -- it will be
the default as first listed.  See apachectl -S output for hints.
