Hello,
this is my first post regarding a problem I encountered today.
I have 2 machines running Apache.
1. Windows 7 Ultimate x86, Apache 2.2.21
2. Windows Server 2008 Enterprise x86, Apache 2.2.22
The strange part is that both servers display a website on a different way, and I was wondering what would be the cause of that, as I'm preparing to move all my sites to the server environment.
Please note: the websites are exact copies of eachother.

Wanted to put in some more info.
Just found out that if i only put the machine name as url, it fails
If i put in theip address, it shows correct
If i put in the machine name with local domain added, it also shows correct. |

OK, I just figured out it's not so much of a difference between 2.2.21 and 2.2.22, but more a difference on how the server handles the request based on ip or localhost name...
Anyone has seen this issue before? |

I've tested on both version, with the same result. Are you sure you using the same html and css code?
Disabled the cache in your browser?

Details?
--edit--
on the pictures I see different paths.
One it on the root / the other one is /intranet/ how do you compensate that? |

Hi James,
first of all thank you for posting a reaction on my quesion.
I have figured out that the problem I have exists in both 2.2.22 and 2.2.21 as I posted in my last reply on my own question...
The problem I have is following:
When I access the webserver by typing its IP address (http://192.168.x.x), the website is shown correct.
When I access the webserver by typing the computer name (http://computername), the website is shown wrong.
When I access the website by remote hostname (http://www.domain.com) it is shown correct
When I access the webserver by its computer name followed by the local domain (http://computername.domain.local) it is also shown correct.
Is there a way that apache does some different handling? |

| You have to post your apache setup. If you using vhosts than post that. (not the whole config) |

It is a clean setup, downloaded from ApacheLounge, no settings changed (except that PHP is installed)
Just to be sure: The difference between 2.2.21 and 2.2.22 no longer counts, I figured it is the way apache handles incoming requests.
Both versions have the same issue.
I am absolutely not a techie (yet), so my httpd.conf files are all default. |

Any details? If you don't tell it is like a black box, just guessing. |

To make it simple.
WHen I browse to the site using the IP address, remote host, or machinename followed by local domain, the site looks like:
http://46.144.117.162/intranet/images/apache-2.2.21.gif
When I browse to the site using only the machine name:
http://46.144.117.162/intranet/images/apache-2.2.22.gif
I blieve this is an apache related issue as it is the very same site every time. |

Ok, I did some more testing, and came to the conclusion that somewhere in my code something must be wrong.
I have installed the IIS serveice on the Server 2008 machine, and I'm experiencing the same issues with that...
Time to dig into my HTML and CSS code...
Sorry for the inconvenience... 
edit:
seems to be a problem with the domain we are running.
WHen I try to connect to a hostname or ip address on a network which is not a domain, I don't get different results.
Will have to investigate this, so we can safely say this is not an apache issue. |

After a bit of testing I finally found the issue, it was the security settings of the browser.
When connected to our domain, internet explorer enables the intranet settings, which causes the page to load incorrectly.
I now have to find a solution to get this undone on the client computers and I should be good to go  |
