I am reading:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/examples.html
And the statement:
"The asterisks match all addresses, so the main server serves no
requests. Due to the fact that the virtual host with |ServerName
www.example.com| is first in the configuration file, it has the highest
priority and can be seen as the default or primary server. That means
that if a request is received that does not match one of the specified
|ServerName
<https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#servername>|
directives, it will be served by this first |<VirtualHost>
<https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#virtualhost>|."
I read this that if I have a conf file that does not have virtual host
directive, it basically fails?
If my first virtual host is:
<VirtualHost *:80>
# Alias /roundcubemail /usr/share/roundcubemail
# Alias /webmail /usr/share/roundcubemail
ServerName webmail.$your_domain_tld
ServerAlias webmail
RewriteEngine On
ReWriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =webmail.$your_domain_tld [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R]
ExpiresDefault "access plus 10 years"
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml
php_admin_flag session.cookie_secure "1"
</VirtualHost>
any config that does not use virtualhost (that is just an Alias and
directory directive) first passes through this first virtual host. And
the way to 'fix' this is to have a dummy first virtual directive:
/etc/httpd/conf.d/00-init.conf
<VirtualHost*:80>ServerNamefoo.bar.com</VirtualHost>
?
