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?

Thanks for the @ tip, I’m fairly new here.
You were right, Tomcat was still running so I stopped it. I’m getting another message now when I try to go to the website’s “ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED”. It says the website is unavailable. The error.log shows the following:

Btw this is in the folder apache2, because the folder apache doesn’t exist for me.
@martijnjansen I’ll start a new thread, since we maxed out the other one.
I would recommend that you run Apache publicly (*:80) and then do a reverse proxy to Tomcat (which will be running on a local port - let’s say 127.0.0.1:8080). That way your visitors don’t have to use a special port to access Tomcat, but will actually access Apache, which would just relay/proxy the connection to Tomcat. You only need to have Tomcat for WAR, so you’ll only use it for that.
Where are your vhost files located? Did you restart apache? What does apache2ctl -S show?
