Hello Justin, I don’t know it the comments on the post about virtual host on ubuntu are still active but two things please :

• first, your tutorial is perfectly clear and efficient (congratulations)

• Second point is a question please :

Once we have set-up a Virtual Host, my problem is that I can’t reach the corresponding local site from another PC on the local network (precisely, i would like to connect to my local site from a smartphone connected to the local network).

So, I have a local site on /var/www/html/asite/ with a index.php inside. I have created a virtual host “asite.com” for this site and when i am on the PC, I can get to this site, either by typing “asite.com” or “localhost/asite”.

FROM THE PC: If I enter “asite.com” or “192.68.0.10/asite” it goes automatically on “localhost/asite”, but it ‘works’ and I can see my site…(yet, i don’t understand why it goes to “localhost/asite” and doesnt stay on asite.com…)

FROM A PHONE ON THE LOCAL NETWORK: I can reach a file like /var/www/html/ATestDir/index.php on my PC, just by entering 192.68.0.10/ATestDir/ …This is OK… But unfortunately, if (FROM MY PHONE) I try to connect to my site by typing “asite.com” or even “192.68.0.10/asite/” or whatsoever… it goes automatically to localhost/asite and says that localhost doesn’t allow the connexion…

My /etc/hosts shows this :

#a first Virtual Host : 192.168.0.10 asite.com 127.0.1.1 pierre-Satellite-L500 #another VirtualHost 127.0.0.1 crud.fr

The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts

::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback ip6-dracard.fr fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters *

By any chance, would you have an idea to solve this problem ? thank you in advance, Pierre
