Topic: Strange forwarding problem

[Jabberwocky]

Hi, sorry for my 1st post to be asking for help, but here goes.

I am trying to setup my server to run 3 sites. (it has been running with 2 for a while with no problem)

Site A is in E:\apache
Site B is in E:\apache\siteB
Site C is in E:\apache\siteC

using virtual host in httpd.conf it has worked with site A and B with no problems. However now whenever I try and access site C it forwards it (the url changes as well) to site B.

If I go to the URL of SiteA\sitec it all works fine, just not if I try to access site C from the off. this has been doing my head in for 2 days now.

Please Helps

I forgot to mention, not sure if it makes much difference but my ISP will only provide me with a dynamic ISP, so everthing is routed via Dyn-DNS.

Please post your vhost config.

How did you define the DNS? Wildcard DNS? 3 different dyndns?

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me@mydomain.com
DocumentRoot "E:\Apache\AndyMasterman"
ServerName www.andy-masterman.co.uk
ServerAlias *.andy-masterman.co.uk
<Directory E:\Apache\AndyMasterman\>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me@mydomain.com
DocumentRoot "E:\Apache\phpbb3"
ServerName beckleystowood.dyndns-web.com
ServerAlias beckleystowood-web.com
<Directory E:\Apache\phpbb3\>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me@mydomain.com

ServerName jt-tech.dyndns-web.com
ServerAlias jt-tech.dyndns-web.com
ErrorDocument 404 /errordoc-404.html
<directory />
allow from all
</directory>
</VirtualHost>


The trouble is that the .co.uk keeps forwarding to the Beckley site.
I have tried #ing out the Beckley host, the site is still forwarded but displays a 404 message.

This is the 1st non Dyndns provided site I am trying so not sure if it is something to do with that. The .co.uk is still using dyndns as its dns though.

Thanks for the help mate,

this is the new look


NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me@mydomain.com
DocumentRoot "E:\Apache\AndyMasterman"
ServerName andy-masterman.co.uk
ServerAlias www.andy-masterman.co.uk
<Directory E:\Apache\AndyMasterman\>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me@mydomain.com
DocumentRoot "E:\Apache\phpbb3"
ServerName beckleystowood.dyndns-web.com
ServerAlias beckleystowood-web.com
<Directory E:\Apache\phpbb3\>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me@mydomain.com
Documentroot "E:\Apache"
ServerName jt-tech.dyndns-web.com
ServerAlias jt-tech.dyndns-web.com
ErrorDocument 404 /errordoc-404.html
<directory />
Order Allow,Deny
allow from all
</directory>
</VirtualHost>

Still got the same problem

Whatever it is is accessing "http://beckleystowood.dyndns-web.com/portal.php" straight from the off as I have removed the html file that was redirecting to the php. I have also searched all the E drive for any text that says php3 and portal.php and changed it but is still ongoing.

[James Blond]

I can open your page http://beckleystowood.dyndns-web.com/portal.php

[Jabberwocky]

yep, I wus just playing with the settings. the problem is that andy-masterman.co.uk, forwards itself to http://beckleystowood.dyndns-web.com/portal.php

[James Blond]

andy-masterman.co.uk I see Hello World

[Jabberwocky]

http://jt-tech.dyndns-web.com/andymasterman/ is what I want andy-masterman.co.uk to look like, "I know, it is an inspired web page at the moment." lol

[Jabberwocky]

[Jabberwocky]

I just checked on my phone and that shows Hello World....but my laptop forwards itself to beckley....com

Now that is strange.

Thanks for your help guys :-S

Is the web server running on your laptop? Did you edit your hosts file for testing?

[Jabberwocky]

no the web server is part of my home network, it only seemed to affect my laptop, the other computers on the network resolved the site ok
