Matching is done through the Host: header that the browser sends, which is in turn filled in by the browser with the hostname you typed into its Location bar. Apache will serve any request that arrives, and anything that is not matched to a particular virtual host will be served by the first one in the list. To make a match, you'll need to make sure that you type the correct hostname into the browser, and that your system is set up to resolve that hostname to the correct IP address. You can do this through DNS or through a local HOSTS file on your system, but that kind of falls outside the scope of this list. > <VirtualHost *:80> > ServerAdmin webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > DocumentRoot /www/webapps/joomla > ServerName mydomain2.com > ServerAlias www.mydomain2.com > ErrorLog logs/mydomain2.com-error_log > CustomLog logs/mydomain2.com-access_log common > </VirtualHost> > > > notice that in this configuration he has changed > > the files the web is served > > > content from htdocs to something else, and further > > aliased that to yet > > > another directory where the applications are.

I asked I'm not really seeing that in the configuration above. It looks like your DocumentRoot is /www/webapps/wordpress and /www/webapps/joomla respectively, which are perfectly separate. These may be symbolic links to somewhere else on the file system level, but we can't see that from here and if you have Options FollowSymLinks there's no problem with that. The only problem with a forest of symbolic links is that it becomes hard to see the trees... better to keep things simple, and in the case of the above you might change DocumentRoot to the actual location of the content, and put in an appropriate <Directory> block to control access.

I guess I'm even more confused. The subject reads as WAMP stack, assuming W is Windows. The paths in the config are not of the Windows file system variety rather *NIX variety. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
