[users@httpd] Alias not working with Apache2

I am running Apache2 on Redhat8. I am doing URL based virtual hosting with 5
web sites on the server.
I am trying to get the following alias to work:

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.3:80>
    Alias /WebCam /home/WebCam/webcam.jpg
    ServerName www..vertualwebsite.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/virtualwebsite
    <Directory /home/WebCam>
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

When I try to access http://www.virtualwebsite.com/WebCam/webcam.jpg .  The
error shown in my "virtualwebsite_error" file is "File does not exist:
/home/www/html/virtualwebsite/WebCam/webcam.jpg"

What am I missing.
What would cause Apache to egnore an Alias statement.

Tom S.

????????
What's different except the wild card you're using instead of single  IP
address and Specified port 80 that I'm using?  My NameVirtualHost =
192.168.0.3:80.  I'm using only one of my network cards for virtual hosting.

OH, The webcam.jpg on the end of the Alias statement was a type-o. It
doesn't exist in my setup.

I really do appreciate anything anyone can offer. I know it has to be
something that I'm overlooking.

Thanks,
Tom S.

Man you massed it all up,
 <VirtualHost *>
     Alias /WebCam /home/WebCam/
     ServerName www.vertualwebsite.com
     DocumentRoot /var/www/html/virtualwebsite
     <Directory /home/WebCam>
         AllowOverride None
         Order allow,deny
         Allow from all
     </Directory>
 </VirtualHost>

Now you can try accessing to:
http://www.virtualwebsite.com/WebCam/webcam.jpg
All the best,
