[users@httpd] Odd site redirection
Hi chaps,
Was wondering if someone can help me look at a problem. We've created a new virtual host entry on a particular box, which do frequently (once a month or so) only this time, when a user goes to the new site, they get directed to the first site in the conf file.
You can type in http://wiggle.mydomain.com and hit enter and you instantly get a http://woggle.mydomain.com and the address bar in the browser also changes.
I've tried creating other new virtual host entries with just the absolute basic entries and those also show the same issue. I've also tried adding a custom log entry for the new vhost sites but the log stays empty.
There's no .htaccess file involved in either of the sites.
The new vhost entry looks like this;
<virtualhost new_site.mydomain.co.uk:80>
documentroot /var/www/new_site
servername new_site.mydomain.co.uk
</virtualhost>
The site that it get's directed to looks like this;
<VirtualHost first_site.mydomain.co.uk:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/first_site
ServerName first_site.mydomain.co.uk
ServerName first_site.mydomain.com
<directory />
AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off
AuthLDAPBindDN "CN=LDAP USER,CN=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=local"
AuthLDAPBindPassword ***************
AuthLDAPURL "ldap://server1/DC=mydomain,DC=local?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*)" NONE
AuthLDAPGroupAttributeIsDN on
require ldap-group CN=Web Users,OU=Security Groups,OU=Mydomain LLP,DC=mydomain,DC=local
AuthName "Mydomain First Site"
</directory>
</VirtualHost>
There are lots of other sites on the server and they are working fine, its just started happening today. We've also tried using a plain "hello world" style index.html file to rule out any meta refresh issue that the coders may have put in to the index file. The SVN stuff all works fine, it's just there for the sake of accuracy.
Is there a way to find out whats causing the redirect and/or where they redirect is happening ?
Olly

Do you have a
NameVirtualHost *.80
in your apache config somewhere?

I would say something is wrong with your new virtual host definition. It's
not a redirection but since the request doesn't match any virtual host is
being served by the first one in the config file.
