Oh yes, I forgot to tell you how to disable the default site. >From the shell run "sudo a2dissite default".
Then run your preferred editor, and create a new file in /etc/apache2/ sites-enabled, and name it whatever you want. I usually name it something similar to the domain name of the app or site. If you were to use vi, you do something like: sudo vi /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/project1 I <VirtualHost *:80> .... </VirtualHost> ESC :w :q And then you'd run "sudo a2ensite project1" (or whatever you named the file) And finally run "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload".
