Hi

So I have a domain name thats in /home/user/public_html which when you use www.domain.com brings up the right page, how ever now i want todo http://subdns.domain.com ive edited vhosts.conf for apache and for some reason when i try it it shows me the main page as if i was doing www.domain.com and not sub.domain.com

here is the www.domain.com seciton:

Code:
<VirtualHost ip.here.thx:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.net
    DocumentRoot "/home/user/public_html/"
    <Directory />
       Options FollowSymLinks
       AllowOverride All
    </Directory>
    <Directory /home/user/public_html>
       Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
       AllowOverride All
       allow from all
    </Directory>
   
    ServerName www.domain.net
    ServerAlias *.domain.net
    ErrorLog "/var/log/httpd/domain.net-error_log"
    CustomLog "/var/log/httpd/domain-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>


This is the sub domain section...

Code:
<VirtualHost ip.here.thx:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.net
    DocumentRoot "/home/user/public_html/subdomain"
    <Directory />
       Options FollowSymLinks
       AllowOverride All
    </Directory>
    <Directory /home/user/public_html/irpg>
       Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
       AllowOverride All
       allow from all
    </Directory>
   
    ServerName sub.domain.net
    ServerAlias *.domain.net
    ErrorLog "/var/log/httpd/domain.net-error_log"
    CustomLog "/var/log/httpd/domain.net-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>


Also I've noticed that i must place the ip address instead of like this:
<VirtualHost www.domain.net:80>
</VirtualHost>

Every time i try the above the website will not be shown any ideas?

Thanks

If you pasted these in the order they appear to apache, anything.domain.com will be caught by the first block, because you have a *.domain.com for the alias.

hmm ok so ive changed the server aliases to

www.domain.com
and
sub.domain.com

still shows www.domain.com site on sub.domain.com but the folder i made for sub.domain.com should be empty
