Apache Still Showing Default Page

Posted on January 31, 2015

I’ve set up a Django CMS site and created a conf file in the /etc/apache2/sites-available directory and enabled it using the a2ensite command. It works. Sort of.

The first 2 lines of my conf fle are:

ServerName www.maneki-neko-con.org ServerAlias maneki-neko-con.org

When I browse to http://www.maneki-neko-con.org/ everything looks good, but when I browse to http://maneki-neko-con.org/ I see the default Apache2 Ubuntu Default page.

What am I doing wrong?

I found the problem. File /etc/hostname contained “maneki-neko-con.org”. I edited it to contain “maneki-neko-con” and now everything works perfectly.
