[users@httpd] Alias not matching warning
Hello, I just upgraded from Apache 2.0.49 to Apache 2.0.54. I have a ton of
virtual hosts in my conf and now when I start Apache I get a million warning
messages stating
[warn] The Alias directive in /usr/local/apache2.0.54/conf/httpd.conf at
line 3267 will probably never match because it overlaps an earlier Alias.
My questions are - is this warning new because I can put my 2.0.49 conf in
the 2.0.54 install and still get the warnings. Did these overlapping Aliases
ever work? I am guessing they did not but Apache 2.0.49 didn't warn me about
it. Is this a new warning in the 2.05x versions? Is there a way to get an
overlapping Alias to work in a VHost with a different domain name? If I have
domain A with an Alias /test to /01/test1 and then domain B with an Alias
/test /01/test2, does domain B's Alias to /test go to /01/test?
Thanks,
Nick

Sorry, no way except grep -v ;-)
...or fixing the real problems.
They are typically caused by just configuring Aliases/ScriptAliases
(or their *Match compagnions) in the wrong order. Aliases work by
"first come, first serve".

Thanks Joshua. Do you know of a way to supress that warnging message? It
will take me some time to clean up all the overlapping Aliases so if I start
adding new virtual hosts I would still want to see any messages startup
would spit out and with the 100 odd warnings it makes it hard to see if
anything else scrolled by the screen.
Thanks,
Nick

Yes, the warning is new but the behavior of the Alias has not changed.
But this warning should not be triggered for overlapping aliases in
different vhosts. It is only when the Aliases overlap in the same
context.

I tested it on Apache2.0.49 and it does allow me to use the same Alias for
mutlple virtual hosts that point to different locations. So is this new in
2.0.54?
Thanks,
