Bizarre forwarding issue

development

I previously only had one domain running on my Linode account (www.clublupo.co.uk) which runs fine.

I've recently registered another domain, setup the virtual hosting, uploaded WordPress (which I'm also hosting there) - however I'm having a bizarre issue with the index of the site. I can visit pages within my new site, such as http://www.torquedata.co.uk/readme.html but if I try and visit www.torquedata.co.uk root, it boots me straight to my www.clublupo.co.uk domain - even if I access the index directly (http://www.torquedata.co.uk/index.php) it boots me across.

Heck, I even uploaded a basic index.html document with a bit of text in hoping that would be the document root, and it STILL did it - however I access access that directly (http://www.torquedata.co.uk/index.html) - although I suspect thats because its processing index.php first??

Any suggestions?

Here is what I'm seeing:

The default page being served for 'Host: www.torquedata.co.uk' is index.html

The index.php for the same Host is redirecting (Status: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently) back to the root:

http://www.torquedata.co.uk/

http://www.clublupo.co.uk/ and the default page of index.html redirects to:

http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?act=idx

Hope that helps.

Thanks - strange though, if index.html is the default, its ignoring it and still moving to the other domain.

Annoying!
