Of course, I should have guessed about the command just statically parsing files. However, at least I'd have a live proof that it's a bug if I run the command while the server behaves strange :-) Sorry, what do you mean about duplicate? Would you mean: <VirtualHost ip:port> ServerName nameB1.org ServerAlias nameB1.org ServerAlias nameB2.org [...] </VirtualHost> OR <VirtualHost ip:port> ServerName nameB2.org ServerAlias nameB1.org [...] </VirtualHost> ? By the way, I should have specified that we have a QA server with exact same configuration and off course, we can't reproduce the bug ;-) Regarding Rewrite rules, we have plenty of them: the Apache I'm talking about is a reverse proxy. But I'm pretty sure I would server a hello_world.html it would be the same...
