[users@httpd] Name based virtual hosts
Greetings,
I've been trying to get apache to do name based virtual hosting for two
dev url's I have, but apache doesn't seem to be wanting to deal with my
httpd.conf entry for the second domain.
The error: "#apachectl restart
Shutting down Web Service: httpd
Setting up Web Service: [Fri Jan 31 00:38:21 2003] [warn]
NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80 has no VirtualHosts
/usr/sbin/httpd"
Below is the entries in my config file--mind you the IP and domain
names have been changed, but are properly routable/look-upable. It's a
Raq3 running Apache 1.3.6, however this is Sun's release of Apache for
Cobal-linux systems and has all of their patches.
Are there any glaring errors? Thoughts? Suggestions? Blank stares and
general laughter is also accepted.
Thanks!

Yes. There are a bunch of other domain names and IP's on that box.
domain1 and domain2 should only listen to the specified IP, or I would
have wildcarded it.

Artifact of the Cobalt web control panel. To be honest, I don't know
what they do either, but it seems to work with the rewrite's in there,
so I don't really mind it much.
Thanks all for your help!

1. You need only a single NameVirtualHost directive for each IP, not one
for each <VirtualHost>.
2. Unless you are doing something complicated (SSL, mixed IP/name based
vhosts), you should use "*" in place of the IP address in NameVirtualHost
and <VirtualHost> as suggested by the docs.

Tried it again after reading that, got the same error:
"# apachectl restart
Shutting down Web Service: httpd
Setting up Web Service: [Fri Jan 31 10:22:14 2003] [warn]
NameVirtualHost 69.0.x.x:80 has no VirtualHosts
/usr/sbin/httpd"
I've changed the IP in this example so that we can get off of that
whole loopback issue, but it has stayed the same in the actual config
file (the IP here, but with the x's filled in properly).
Having done a line by line comparison of these two virtual host blocks
(the top one works, and has worked), the only difference is domain1 vs
domain2. Further ideas? New config below.
Thanks,

There are several different things wrong with your configuration. But
perhaps the best advice I can give you is to carefully read:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/vhosts/name-based.html
If you make your configuration look like the same one there, and it still
doesn't work, then come back for more help.

Hi,
well, this way the apache server will not respond to anything else, but local requests from the same server. You will have to have the hosts file or the DNS setup, so the domain names resolve to 127.0.0.1.
You could use then <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1> instead of using the domain names.

hmm, private publicly available data... domain name /ip numbers are
publicly available as they are not considered confidential data.
kind of like posting to a list like this, or a newsgroup, with a
standard signature of private and confidential communication.

I'm not actually using the loop back address. I'm just putting that in
there so as to protect the privacy of the server owner. The IP is real
and public routable, and the domain is an actual FQDN, but both were
changed in this email.

You are using a loopback address (127.0.0.1) how do you expect it to work?
This address is valid only for the local computer, if you have more then one
IP address then try them one by one instead of 127.0.0.1.
If there's no security involved, change to be
NameVirtualHost *
And than change the 127.0.0.1 to the appropriate IPs you have inside the
Vhost directives.
All the best,
