I have two domains hosted on my droplet, I have the virtual hosts setup. But my second domain keeps going to the first one's directory for some reason. This is the Apache VHosts file for the first one: ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/computingessentials Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all ErrorLog "/var/www/computingessentials/logs/error_log" And this is for the second one: ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/crunchyvps Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all ErrorLog "/var/www/crunchyvps/logs/error_log" I have used ajenti to generate both of the files

Can you pastebin both of your virtualhosts?

From what you posted, it looks like you're missing the ServerName directives. Each virtual host section needs a ServerName directive to tell it what domain name to listen for. Optionally, you can also use a ServerAlias directive to assign additional domain names:

ServerName example.com
ServerAlias *.example.com

Apache will, by default, assign the first virtual host loaded to be the fallback so any unrecognized domains will go there.
