Apache vhost config

Question

Hi i've tried to configure a vhost on my server but it's not working.

when trying to access it goes default...

this is my basic config.

On my server:

/var/www/html/blentico.com/public_html/index.php (and Wordpress packages)

/etc/apache2/sites-available/blentico.com.conf

this is the content of blentico.com.conf

<VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin [email protected] ServerName blentico.com Serveralias www.blentico.com DocumentRoot /var/www/html/blentico.com/public_html ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost> 

then i run the command:

a2ensite blentico.com.conf

all my files/directories inside /var/www have user/group root and 755 permission

ok, so, i suppose that this is OK according to all the docs i've read but when i try to access to www.blentico.com it goes directly to my index.php file located in /var/www/html/index.php and no to /var/www/html/blentico.com/public_html as i've indicated on my blentico.com.conf file.

hope you can help me.

At the very least you need to wrap your configuration with <VirtualHost></VirtualHost> tags. Otherwise I imagine it'll just get merged into the default configuration. See https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/ for more information on setting up vhosts.

Answer 2

Done!

My default config (000-default.conf) were active and with no ServerName so always ended in this DocumentRoot (DocumentRoot of 000-default.conf file), right? i think yes cos when i deactivate this config with a2dissite 000-default and restart apache my config start working. i've also made some modifications to my config file although that doesn't make any difference to my first problem. Anyway i show it below

<VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin [email protected] ServerName blentico.com Serveralias www.blentico.com DocumentRoot /var/www/html/blentico.com/public_html ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/blentico.com-error.log CustomLog /var/log/apache2/blentico.com-access.log combined <Directory /var/www/html/blentico.com/public_html> Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory>
