ahoy all,
i have been trying/searching/etc unsuccessfully to do the following
(what i believe to be) simple task:
enable mass/dynamic virtual hosts, allowing each virtual host to be
accessed via example.com AND www.example.com, without creating a
VirtualHost directive for each host.
my attempts have centered on first enabling dynamic virtual hosting
with:
NameVirtualHost *
UseCanonicalName Off
VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/sites/%0/www
VirtualScriptAlias /var/www/sites/%0/cgi-bin
which works fine. i can access all the sites listed in /var/www/sites/
(once they are added to /etc/hosts of course, in both their
www.example.com and example.com forms). then, i attempt to make a
VirtualHost directive for the default host that lists the alias:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName default
ServerAlias www.*
DocumentRoot /var/www/
</VirtualHost>
unfortunately this does nothing. the virtual hosts are only accessible
via their domain names WITHOUT the www. prefix.
in addition, i can no longer access the default DocumentRoot via
localhost or 127.0.0.1. i believe this is a hint to my problem, as it
seems the VirtualHost directive is not overriding the dynamic/mass
virtual hosting.
here are my details: running Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) Mar 10 2009 18:09:05
on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 with kernel 2.6.24-23 and all latest updates
applied. i have tried it with/without the default "sites-enabled"
Debian config, to no luck.
i would appreciate any help with this, or if it is even possible. it
has been a few days of trying with no luck.
thanks, wayne.
