ServerName not working in Apache2 and Ubuntu
- by CreativeNotice
Setting up a dev LAMP server and I wish to allow dynamic subdomains, aka ted.servername.com, bob.servername.com.
Here's my sites-active file
<VirtualHost *:80>
# Admin Email, Server Name, Aliases
ServerAdmin [email protected]
ServerName happyslice.net
ServerAlias *.happyslice.net
# Index file and Document Root
DirectoryIndex index.html
DocumentRoot /home/sysadmin/public_html/happyslice.net/public
# Custom Log file locations
LogLevel warn
ErrorLog /home/sysadmin/public_html/happyslice.net/log/error.log
CustomLog /home/sysadmin/public_html/happyslice.net/log/access.log combined
And here's the output from sudo apache2ctl -S
VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and default servers:
*:80 is a NameVirtualHost
default server happyslice.net (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default:1)
port 80 namevhost happyslice.net (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default:1)
port 80 namevhost happyslice.net (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/happyslice.net:5)
Syntax OK
The server hostname is srv.happyslice.net.
As you can see from apache2ctl when I use happyslice.net I get the default virtual host, when I use a subdomain, I get the happyslice.net host. So the later is working how I want, but the main url does not.
I've tried all kinds of variations here, but it appears that ServerName just isn't being tied to the correct location.
Thoughts? I'm stumped. FYI, I'm running Apache2.1 and Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
