Question
Can access my website through IP but not domain name [APACHE]
Hi,
I have been struggling on that one for a few days.
I set up virtual hosts as per explained in various tutorial.
I can access my website through the IP address but not the actual domain name.
Here is the Vhost:
<VirtualHost *:80>
# The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
# the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
# redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
# specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
# match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
# value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
# However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
#ServerName www.example.com
ServerAdmin aloysberger@gmail.com
ServerName aloys.dev
ServerAlias www.aloys.dev
DocumentRoot /var/www/aloys.dev/public_html
# Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,
# error, crit, alert, emerg.
# It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular
# modules, e.g.
#LogLevel info ssl:warn
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
# For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
# enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to
# include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the
# following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
# after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf".
#Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
</VirtualHost>
If I go to the IP address http://161.35.30.115/ it works. But neither does http://aloys.dev or http://www.aloys.dev.
I used check-host and it looks like the DNS has propagated. If I check aloys.dev it redirects me to the right IP address…
I need help here!
