Question

Setting up multiple virtual hosts with domain names

I’m trying to get my virtual hosts to work on Apache. I followed the tutorials here on this website, but for some reason both my domain names keep going to the standard Apache page instead of their own folders. I disables the 000-default.conf and enabled my own.

Here are my two configuration files:

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin info@insiteweb.xyz
	ServerName insiteweb.xyz
	ServerAlias www.insiteweb.xyz
	DocumentRoot /var/www/insiteweb.xyz/public_html

	ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
	CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin info@moviezzz.nl
	ServerName moviezzz.nl
	ServerAlias www.moviezzz.nl
	DocumentRoot /var/www/moviezzz.nl/public_html

	ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
	CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Inside the folders /var/www/moviezzz.nl/public_html and /var/www/insiteweb.xyz/public_html are both an index.html file. Yet I stil get send to the standard " It works !

If you’re seeing this page via a web browser, it means you’ve setup Tomcat successfully. Congratulations!" page of apache.

Does anyone know what the problem might be?

I think you’re right that I have to do the redirection on Tomcat. Your code still gives a 404 and the link changes to http://insiteweb.xyz/insite-1.5.1.RELEASE. When I try the redirect without /insite-1.5.1.RELEASE it works, but it only goes to the regular Tomcat page.

For the redirect on Tomcat, do I have to set a redirect in the index.jsp of ROOT or is there another better way?

@hansen Ok, I will use copying in the future.

And it’s a new droplet so I can reinstall it. You mean rebuild to Ubuntu 16.04 Base Image?
