I've moved a wordpress site to an Ubuntu Server. While I access it from localhost everything works fine but when I try from my public IP address I can only see the apache2 default page.
I tried everything:
Disabled 000-default.conf and enabled mine
Deleted the default HTML page
Added AllowOverride All
Here there's my Virtual Host file
<VirtualHost *:80>
<Directory "/var/www/exidis">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ServerName alternanza.duckdns.org
ServerAlias www.alternanza.duckdns.org
DocumentRoot /var/www/exidis
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Thanks in advance for any suggestion

I got VH working fine.
Localhost and my first site (which is attached to a domain) work absolutely fine, no issues.
However I wanted to add a second site (3rd if you include localhost) to experiment with a new site. However after having added it, it simply seems to re-direct to the first site's domain. They are both wordpress installations (although the 3rd isnt installed yet as I cant access it) but I'm not sure if that's relevant.
Here's my two relevant files;
httpd-vhosts.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias localhost
<Directory "c:/wamp/www">
AllowOverride All
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/mysite"
ServerName mysite.local
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/mysite">
AllowOverride All
Require local
</Directory>
ErrorLog "logs/mysite-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/mysite-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin info#mydomain.co.uk
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/wordpress"
ServerName mydomain.co.uk
ServerAlias www.mydomain.co.uk
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/wordpress">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ErrorLog "logs/wordpress-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/wordpress-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
As explained.. localhost works, mydomain.co.uk works (name changed for privacy reasons but it works!). mysite.local does not it just redirects to mydomain.co.uk ???? (I tried a bunch of names including mysite.localhost, etc etc-- nothing works! I don't care what the name is I just want to be able to access it, will be buying a domain for it soon).
Any help is appreciated. Thank-you!
Here's hosts file although it's pretty self explanatory;
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 mysite.locals
127.0.0.1 mydomain.co.uk
::1 localhost
::1 mysite.local
::1 mydomain.co.uk
I have 1 ubuntu 14.04 server from DO and two independant WordPress installations I'm trying to run off the same server
Have two apache vhost config files:
000-default.conf and 001-default.conf
Now when navigating to domain1.com everything works flawlessly. The entire website is working as expected. But there is a problem with going to domain2.com it will automatically redirect to domain1.com. Basically the problem is I can't get to the WordPress installation screen on domain2.com
Here is the conf file under sites available for domain1.com (000-default.conf):
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin email#gmail.com
ServerName domain1.com
ServerAlias www.domain1.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
<Directory /var/www/html/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
config file for domain2.com (001-default.conf):
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin email#gmail.com
ServerName domain2.com
ServerAlias www.domain2.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/htmlposts
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/htmlposts>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Additional information:
In /var/www/html I have the WordPress files for domain1.com and everything works.
In /var/www/htmlposts/ I have extracted the WordPress files for domain2.com
it looks like this: http://prntscr.com/d4h9gu
I have created an index.html file in /var/ww/htmlposts which is the directory for domain2.com and when I navigate to domain2.com/index.html the file displays as expected but when I navigate to domain2.com/wp-admin/install.php which should start the wp installation process for instance #2 "domain2.com" it shows an already installed error which looks like this: http://prntscr.com/d4hhav
There are two databases on the server. One is for domain1.com and the other database is an empty one that I created for domain2.com. Both are correctly pointed in their respective wp-config.php files.
Can you compare the config.php of the 2 sites. Make sure that the database names in both the config.php files are different.
I'm building a portal for the organization I'm working at.
The portal is a Wordpress site using Wampserver 2.5, intalled on a Win server 2008 R2.
It's working fine and accesible from other machines over the intranet, thanks to the helpful and patient RiggsFolly.
But now, I have changed it into a network of sites so that I can build sub-portals for the different departments in my organization.
During that change Wordpress gave this warning message: Warning! Wildcard DNS may not be configured correctly!
Wordpress has a page explaining how to configure wildcard subdomains on Apache - http://codex.wordpress.org/Configuring_Wildcard_Subdomains.
I tried following it but the explanation lacks details and I'm probably doing something wrong.
On the machine where the servers and site are installed, when I write http://hipo (hipo is the current site name) in the browser's address bar, I get to the site fine.
But when I write http://depa.hipo (depa is a subsite I created successfully), the address changes into http://www.depa.hipo/ and the browser says it didn't find a server at that address.
I have probably set the ServerAlias line wrong in httpd-vhosts.conf, and also I didn't add the line *.example.com A 192.0.43.10, or in my case *.hipo A <rightIP>, cause I wasn't sure where to add it in the file.
This is my httpd-vhosts.conf file. Your help is appreciated!
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/hipo"
ServerName hipo
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/hipo">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/hipo"
ServerName subsites.hipo
ServerAlias *.hipo
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/hipo">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias localhost
<Directory "c:/wamp/www">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
This definition does not have a ServerAlias so try adding one like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/hipo"
ServerName hipo
ServerAlias www.hipo
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/hipo">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I currently have this apache2 site configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin#example.com
ServerName engine.com
ServerAlias www.engine.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/engine.com/public_html
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
If I type engine.com I just get a blank page.
My directory setup is like this
/var/www/engine.com/public_html/wp-content...
Localhost works fine and wordpress installation is triggered, but as I say engine.com just brings me a blank page.
Don't you need to add
engine.com 127.0.0.1
to your hosts file?
Here is the problem, if you visit the site directorybest.net you will see the correct website (which is defined in apache). But if you go to the www version of the site a catch all site for and from IIS is displayed. I have no idea what this is causing this.
I have another site that already runs fine on apache from which I copied the info for DNS and vhost settings. I also have set the DNS up so that both sites point to the same ip address. Does anyone know why the www version of the site does not show the right website?
Here is the vhost information for both the working and non working site.
NameVirtualHost *
#non-working site
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin admin#email.com
ServerName www.directorybest.net
ServerAlias directorybest.net *.directorybest.net
DocumentRoot "D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\2"
DirectoryIndex index.php
<Directory D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\2>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
# Logfiles
ErrorLog D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\2\logs\error.log
CustomLog D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\2\logs\access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
#working site
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin admin#email.com
ServerName www.directorybest.info
ServerAlias directorybest.info *.directorybest.info
DocumentRoot "D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\1"
DirectoryIndex index.php
<Directory D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\1>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
# Logfiles
ErrorLog D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\1\logs\error.log
CustomLog D:\WWW\DirectoryBest\1\logs\access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Ok so I was just informed that the company has had DNS problems before. And upon further checking the local DNS had not been updated and was still resolving to the old ip address.
