Re: [users@httpd] Vhosts not working like expected

I guess I'll jump on the boilerplate bandwagon...

Please post the relevant parts of your httpd.conf file to the list. Without seeing your vhost setup, no one here will be able to help you out with your problem. Which sounds pretty whacked, IMO. :)

I have a home setup running apache 1.3, mod_perl 1.29 & mason 1.26. All was happy until a few nights ago when I changed up httpd.conf to use named based virtual hosts. The good news is that it works (works being that apache will serve any of the 3 sites given a set of circumstances). The problem is this, and hang in there with me while I explain: I have 3 sites which I will refer to as site.one, site.two and site.three. If I restart everything, I get a properly displayed site.one, but site.two shows a blank page and site.three displays a mason error saying it cannot find a mandatory method (this method *is* in the appropriate index.html file, it just seems it cannot be found). I look at the logs and nothing odd shows up for two and three, it just appears that the files cannot be read. So, I go in, open the index page for size two, put in a new line, save it and refresh my site.two browser page (tested in both
firefix and netscape7.2 on rhel3); it works!
However, now I go back to site one, which previously displayed properly, and now it is a totally blank page exactly like site two was before I made the small edit. I edit site.three's index (again by placing an simple newline and saving) and now site three displays properly and site one and two are showing blank pages. In short, I can only view one site at a time b/c the only page that
will now display is the last modified file.

Of note here is that for site.three, there is a syshandler in the doc root which defines some things, among them a mandatory method for any .html page. If I do not have this method in a file, it will die saying something like "cannot find method....". My point is that if I modify site.one, I then get a mason error for site.three's home page. This means that it can read the syshandler for site.three, but not the index.html file. At least that is
what I have gleaned from beating my head against this wall.

[ reply from another list posting ]
is it a mason problem- i.e., can you see a nonmason 'hello world'
page?

well, this is interesting. Here is what I did to answer your question:

First, I created a strictly html test.html page in the root of each site. As
I created each page, I opened a new tab and verified that it showed
correctly. The output of the test page was "<SiteX> Test Page" where SiteX
is one, two or three. Note, for site three (the one which, due to the
overall design, must have a specific method in the file) I included the
following: <%flags> inherit => undef </%flags>

Next, I went back to each tab and refreshed (w/o using any cache of course), and all 3 showed content (as where before two of the three would be blank). However, the content was the exact same for all 3, that of the final file I modified. I closed out of all the files, restarted apache, and it persists.

I then did the same thing in reverse (edit site three, two, one) and the
same thing happened, almost. Site two showed the last modified files
contents, and site three threw a mason error (which is what it would do if
reading site one's test file).

So, to answer your question, after that little test, I would maybe have to say no, it is not a mason problem. It almost appears as though apache is
using the last modified file as the doc root?

[and now I find myself here]

I have tried the general perlhacker types, the mason people and now I submit this issue to the apache community. I have done a bit of homework on this so if I have not answered a simple question, please remind me I missed some
important information.
