Configuration of NameVirtualHosts and IP address

  • 772

so I have site1.com and 192.168.1.100

If I use the IP address Apache doesn't work for site1.com, if I use site1.com the IP address doesn't work. Thoughts?

Can I get both?

I need to access the IP and site1.com and have them point to different directories ( different projects )

Site1.com

#NameVirtualHost site1.com:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        DocumentRoot /home/www/site1.com/current/web
        ServerName site1.com
        ServerAlias site1.com

        <Directory />
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride None
        </Directory>
        <Directory /var/www/site1.com/current/web/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride None
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/app_error.log

        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
        # alert, emerg.
        LogLevel warn

        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/app_access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

IP Address

NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.100:80
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.100:80>
#<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        DocumentRoot /home/www/ip/current/
        ServerName 192.168.1.100
        ServerAlias 192.168.1.100

        <Directory /home/www/ip/current/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride None
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Directory>

  1. Both your VirtualHost directives need to match the NameVirtualHost directive. So you must either use *:80 in both VirtualHost and in Name VirtualHost, or you use 192.168.1.100:80 in all places.

    You also do not need to set the same name as ServerName and ServerAlias. ServerAlias is meant for any additional names you want to assign to that virtualhost, in addition to ServerName.

  2. Set a virtual host without ServerName as a catch-all virtualhost:

    <VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /home/www/ip/current/
    <Directory>
    ...
