[users@httpd] Re: Alias not matching warning

[Kvetch <kvetch@xxxxxxxxx>]

I tested it on Apache2.0.49 and it does allow me to use the same Alias for mutlple virtual hosts that point to different locations.  So is this new in 2.0.54?

Thanks,

Hello, I just upgraded from Apache 2.0.49 to Apache 2.0.54.  I have a ton of virtual hosts in my conf and now when I start Apache I get a million warning messages stating
[warn] The Alias directive in /usr/local/apache2.0.54/conf/httpd.conf at line 3267 will probably never match because it overlaps an earlier Alias.

My questions are - is this warning new because I can put my 2.0.49 conf in the 2.0.54 install and still get the warnings.  Did these overlapping Aliases ever work?  I am guessing they did not but Apache 2.0.49 didn't warn me about it.  Is this a new warning in the 2.05x versions?  Is there a way to get an overlapping Alias to work in a VHost with a different domain name?  If I have domain A with an Alias /test to /01/test1 and then domain B with an Alias /test /01/test2, does domain B's Alias to /test go to /01/test?

Thanks,
