Archived from groups: alt>apache>configuration (more info?)
Hi, I have read the documents but what the canges I made to
apache.conf have now broken it!

All I did was paste the following at the end of the apache.cong file:

# Ensure that Apache listens on port 80
Listen 80

# Listen for virtual host requests on all IP addresses
NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost>

DocumentRoot /www/
ServerName www.mydomain.com

# Other directives here

</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost>

DocumentRoot /www/myotherfolder
ServerName www.myotherdomain.com

# Other directives here

</VirtualHost>


whats wrong with this please?

I have this qnap linux machine in a little box (no screen, keyboard
etc) that works as a media server and web server. I can't figure out
where the log files are and it does not give you error mesages. When I
made the changes it just refuses to start apache.

I don't understand what you mean about "To start with, the VirtualHost
entry needs to agree with the
NameVirtualHost - <VirtualHost *:80> ".

I just took this code from this eample:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/vhosts/examples.html#purename

To start with, the VirtualHost entry needs to agree with the
NameVirtualHost -
<VirtualHost *:80>

Further than that, you may want to tell us what you mean by broken and maybe
give us some error messages to work with.

that example is correct, what you had was wrong.

What I meant... If you have the line:
NameVirtualHost *:80

then the '*:80' bit NEEDS to apppear in your VirtualHost part, as in:
<VirtualHost *:80>
....
</VirtualHost>

not just
<VirtualHost>
....
</VirtualHost>

As for log files, have you tried looking in the usual place -
/var/log/httpd/ ?

having seen your other post, I'd guess that you ended up with a conf file
containing both

Port 80
and
Listen 80

You only need one, remove the other.
