[users@httpd] Virtual Hosting: One website doesn't work.
Hello,
Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a Digital Ocean droplet. This machine is running Apache/2.4.10
The /etc/apache2/apache2.conf has never been modified and is hosting a number of sites. But there is one site that is does not load at all:
$ telnet example.com 80
Trying 104.236.25.70...
Connected to example.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.com
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Date: Sat, 03 Jan 2015 00:45:03 GMT
Server: Apache/2.4.10 (Ubuntu)
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.5.12-2ubuntu4.1
X-Pingback: http://example.com/xmlrpc.php
Location: http://example.com/
Content-Length: 0
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Connection closed by foreign host.
What is quite perplexing, is that I go to sites-available and copy the example.org to example.com and modify the ServerName and DocumentRoot fields to the correct data. After enabling, reloading, I still get the same results. I should mention that example.org works perfectly fine. I verified that DocumentRoot belongs to www-data, recursively.
So why? I've never had this happen before.
In case you need it...

When you use "telnet something 80" that something, when it is a name, does not
appear in the communication with your web server, only the IP address is used,
which is needed to end up in a named virtual host. So in this case you always
ends up in the default web site of your apache configuration.
When you use wget something/... that something, when it is a name, will appear
in the communication and apache will use that name to find the named virtual
host.
When testing different virtual named hosts on the same system I define these
names, like example.com, www.example.com, etc. in /etc/hosts pointing to
127.0.0.1. You can always use the reconnect icon of the web browser to get a
fresh version of the page you are accessing. Never had any problem with that.

get rid of wordpress and anything else, install a temp placeholder
index.html file, get it working with basics before expanding, if that
works, then your problem is wordpress and you should take it up with
their lists/forums/newsgroups

Classify this thread resolved. I didn't know that HTTP was case sensitive, and that resulted in inconsistent behavior. Just as I was about to call a priest to exorcize a virtual machine.
* It appears that adding ServerAlias corrected the behavior.
* It is true that misuse of the telnet www.example.com 80 as a testing method led to misleading results.
Thanks all for the help. Things are up and running as they should be. This is soooo going into my blog.

Hi,
From the 501 Not implemented and from some of your telnet sessions
copies, I see you use also "get / http/1.1" but beware, HTTP is case
sensitive, and you should use "GET / HTTP/1.1". This would explain why
wget gets your resource correctly but you can't get it through telnet.
Hope this help!

It was undefined. I thought I would implement it according to online documentation. I retyped an equivalent excerpt from my sites-available directory.
ServerName www.example.com
ServerAlias example.com

That file, xmlprc.php is something generated by wordpress. I'm in no
way familiar with how wordpress works. So this may be a wordpress
configuration issue. The simplest may be to reinstall wordpress and hope
it works. I'm not sure why these two behave differently (www.example.com
[4] vs example.com) I always thought the extra four letters were
something that Apache knew how to deal with. It's hard to guarantee that
the user will user type or omit the 'www.' What should be done about
this?

Yes, I noticed that. I noticed the difference later on in composing the message, but forgot to modify the first sentence during proofreading.

That file, xmlprc.php is something generated by wordpress. I'm in no way familiar with how wordpress works. So this may be a wordpress configuration issue. The simplest may be to reinstall wordpress and hope it works. I'm not sure why these two behave differently (www.example.com vs example.com) I always thought the extra four letters were something that Apache knew how to deal with. It's hard to guarantee that the user will user type or omit the 'www.' What should be done about this?

That redirect is issued by your PHP script.

... whereas that looks like a server redirection
with a stray extra slash, and is probably generated
from your apache configuration.
Decide which you want to use, then configure your server
and your PHP to agree on it.

I'm making a guess here. Are you asking whether I assign Host: as being example.com or www.example.com? Here's the script from each. They are slightly different, but the result is the same.
$ telnet www.example.com 80

Notice something odd here, might be a clue. The "Location:" field is assigned with a FQDN appended with '//' which doesn't seem proper to me. I'm not sure how extra slashes are dealt with in the specification, but that's not something I typically type in when typing URL's into a web browser.

Re: [users@httpd] Virtual Hosting: One website doesn't work.

I'm not sure what you are asking. No, it doesn't work. That was the one I demonstrated in telnet. I did not get my screen filled with HTML, instead I got an error message.
I actually copied the conf file from a working website and only renamed the ServerName and DocumentRoot, noting else. The directory, and all subdirectories have the same ownership.
How come I can host seven different websites and have one that fails, even though their conf files differ only in the DocumentRoot and ServerName. IT seems unusual. I wouldn't think that I'm hosting too many websites, but 7 is (2^3)-1. Just kidding there, but sometimes I wonder.

Does example.com work? Have you looked in your configuration to see
what performs this redirect from www to no-www?
Does it fail only for the hostname of the actual system?
