Question
Apache virtual host not working
- Posted September 18, 2014
I’m trying to setup my Apache server to have a second site but it does not appear to be starting when I reload and restart Apache.
Here is my conf file for both sites:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin <redacted>
DocumentRoot /var/www
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:8083>
ServerAdmin <redacted>
DocumentRoot /var/www-local
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error-www-local.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
The first one loads up just fine, but the second one always gives a connection reset whenever I try to access it through that port.
Is there something I am doing or configuring wrong?

Alright
Issue was that I did not add the port to ports.conf. Thanks to WesleyL.
You can try enabling port 8083 in your firewall and it then restart apache2
You need to make sure Apache listens on that port first. Try changing the ports.conf file in /etc/apache2/.

Aha that seems to be it. Added that to the Ports.conf and it seems to work.
Thanks for the help!
