I can ping both roissystudiotest.ca and www.roissystudiotest.ca
The host file entries:
192.168.0.77 roissystudiotest.ca
192.168.0.77 www.roissystudiotest.ca
The virtual-sites.conf file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot
/home/stephen/www/roissy.ca/public_html/roissystudio.ca
ServerName www.roissystudiotest.ca
<Directory
/home/stephen/www/roissy.ca/public_html/roissystudio.ca>
DirectoryIndex index.php
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog
/home/stephen/www/roissy.ca/public_html/roissystudio/error.log
TransferLog
/home/stephen/www/roissy.ca/public_html/roissystudio/transfer.log
</VirtualHost>
Note: My directory structure follows the way my web host service
sets up directories. My first site is at the top, and additional
sites are sub directories.

Can you ping both roissystudiotest.ca and www.roissystudiotest.ca?
Do you have something like:
in your vhost file?
Do you have an index file, of some sort, in the virtual home directory?

I have a standard LAMP for development.
I set up a new virtual host about once every two years and always struggle.
I have added the web site to my hosts file and direct to my server. I have a dozen entries.
I have updated my virtual hosts Apache file
I can ping the new virtual host just fine.
But both Brave and Firefox raise an error saying that the host cannot be reached?
Firefox:
Unable to connect
Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at roissystudiotest.ca.Brave:
This site can’t be reached
www.roissystudiotest.ca refused to connect.
I was getting the Apache default page but corrected the file permissions to 755.
Any and all help welcome!
