I successfully setup virtual hosts on my droplet with CentOS 6.4 x32 I was following this tutorial. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-centos-6
Everything is good except, some issues.
-
If I setup virtual hosts, my default landing page is changed and pointing to one of my domain location. I want it to be some specific page or default CentOS setup page. This http://i.imgur.com/NLSJR.png After setting up virtual hosts, my default page is one of my domains page which I do not want.

www.domain.com and domain.com are working fine and pointing to same location/page. But if I type a.domain.com or random.domain.com, it still points to my that location which I do not want. I want it to give error. I assume this random subdomains are pointing to main domain because I added wildcard entry *.domain.com as ServerAlias in httpd.conf. But if I do not add this wildcard then random subdomains points to one of my different domain.
Any ideas on these issues.

You have to set up a default catch-all virtualhost: <br> <br>http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html#default
<VirtualHost *:80> <br> ServerAdmin webmaster@mydomain.com <br> DocumentRoot /home/myuser/mydomain.com/public <br> ServerName www.mydomain.com <br> ServerAlias mydomain.com <br> DirectoryIndex index.html index.php <br> ErrorLog /home/myuser/mydomain.com/log/error.log <br> CustomLog /home/myuser/mydomain.com/log/access.log combined <br></VirtualHost> <br>
I have created 4 virtual hosts right now. And they do have all different DocumentRoot. Here is virtual host entry. <br> <br><VirtualHost *:80> <br> ServerAdmin webmaster@mydomain.com <br> DocumentRoot /home/myuser/mydomain.com/public <br> ServerName www.mydomain.com <br> ServerAlias mydomain.com <br> DirectoryIndex index.html index.php <br> ErrorLog /home/myuser/mydomain.com/log/error.log <br> CustomLog /home/myuser/mydomain.com/log/access.log combined <br></VirtualHost> <br>
