My apache web server is working fine. We are a public school and we have a
domain issued by the state. So, this works great. I set my server name to www,
and then my web page comes up with www.domain.com(or whatever). It's accessible
and everything is grand.
However, now I would like to set up at least one virtual host. What we wanted
to do is set up a page for the community with it's own domain name. We
purchased it and told dotster.com to point the name at our
server--www.domain.com(or whatever) and also gave them our IP address (not at
dotster, they didn't let us, but for a different domain for experimental
purposes).
Using netconf, I created virtual hosts of the domain names that we purchased and
gave them directory. For the longest time, when I typed httpd restart, it would
hang and then say it couldn't resolve the host of my virtual directory.
So, then, I created virtual IP numbers and modified the /etc/hosts file. I put:
192.168.10 www.domain.com www
192.168.11 www.otherdomain.com www (in both cases using the actual domains we
purchased)
Now, httpd restarts fine. But the web site still doesn't start. Why not?
Anybody know?
