[users@httpd] Understand "httpd -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS"
Presented is the output of httpd -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS.
Why does every NameVirtualHost reference its configuration twice; one for
the default server and the other for the port #### namevhost?
And why do all NameVirtualHost(s) have a default server reference, which
seems conflicting.
httpd -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS Output:
VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers:
_default_:443 localhost (/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:81)
*:8085 is a NameVirtualHost
default server project_site.admin.8085
(/etc/httpd/conf/extras/virtual-host.project_site.admin.8085.conf:23)
port 8085 namevhost project_site.admin.8085
(/etc/httpd/conf/extras/virtual-host.project_site.admin.8085.conf:23)
*:8080 is a NameVirtualHost
default server project_site.dev.8080
(/etc/httpd/conf/extras/virtual-host.project_site.dev.8080.conf:28)
port 8080 namevhost project_site.dev.8080
(/etc/httpd/conf/extras/virtual-host.project_site.dev.8080.conf:28)
*:80 is a NameVirtualHost
default server project_site.demo.80
(/etc/httpd/conf/extras/virtual-host.project_site.demo.80.conf:35)
port 80 namevhost project_site.demo.80
(/etc/httpd/conf/extras/virtual-host.project_site.demo.80.conf:35)
Thanks

You have three ports with one host one each. You're not using name
based virtual hosts at all, but have defined "NameVirtualHost" for
each of your ports.
Therefore apache will list for each port:
- De default vhost
- All defined vhosts.
Because you only have one virtualhost defined per port it gets
menioned twice, that is all.

Jeff,
I think your question as asked is too complex, there are too many things
at once, and you do not provide enough information to answer.
(First, can you tell what Apache version this is, on which platform, and
initially installed how ?)
Another part that is a bit mysterious (to me at least), is why you would
have Apache answering on several ports, specially if some of these ports
do not even appear to be accessible from anywhere else but localhost.
(A reference to your other post "Remote Browsing of Other Ports than
Port 80")
That greatly complicates the issue, maybe for no reason.
Can you eliminate these other ports, and just leave Apache answering on
port 80, or is there some reason for the other ones ?
(If your sites have different DNS names, it is not really necessary to
also have different ports)
An example :
evm2:~# /usr/sbin/apache2ctl -S
VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers:
*:80 is a NameVirtualHost
default server evm2.domain1.com
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/.default:1)
port 80 namevhost evm2.domain1.com
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/.default:1)
port 80 namevhost maf.domain1.com
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/MAF:1)
port 80 namevhost bsp.domain2.net
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/MIR:1)
port 80 namevhost qa.domain2.net
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/NYC:1)
port 80 namevhost sales.domain3.net
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/WIS:1)
Syntax OK
The same, commented :
All these virtual hosts answer requests on port 80.
VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers:
*:80 is a NameVirtualHost
(means that Apache has found a line "NameVirtualHosts *:80"
default server evm2.domain1.com
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/.default:1)
That is the "default" server (the one used for requests to port 80,
where Apache cannot really figure out for which hostname it is. It
corresponds either to a section explicitly saying
<VirtualHost _default_:80>
or just to the first-occurring <VirtualHost *:80> section
)
port 80 namevhost evm2.domain1.com
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/.default:1)
corresponds to a section like
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName evm2.domain1.com
...
</VirtualHost>
It defines the Virtual Host handling requests to "evm2.domain1.com"
port 80 namevhost maf.domain1.com
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/MAF:1)
corresponds to a section like
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName maf.domain1.com
...
</VirtualHost>
It defines the Virtual Host handling requests to "maf.domain1.com"
etc...
port 80 namevhost bsp.domain2.net
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/MIR:1)
port 80 namevhost qa.domain2.net
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/NYC:1)
port 80 namevhost sales.domain3.net
(/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/WIS:1)
Syntax OK
