Re: Permission denied virtualhost alias

[Bocalinda <bocalinda@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Steve,

Yes I'm absolutely sure. nslookup returns the same IP address for all 3 hostnames.

As to the file system or site authentication, all sites have the same documentroot, and only 1 doesn't work. I guess that a file system permission is out of the question here?

that's always going to be file system or site authentication.
Are you sure the DNS for the three sites is pointing at the same place?

Subject: Permission denied virtualhost alias

Hi,

I got the following parameters in my VirtualHost configuration:

<VirtualHost *:80>

    ServerName www.someserver.com

    ServerAlias www.otherserver.com

    ServerAlias otherserver.com

    DocumentRoot /var/www/public_html

    ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error_log

    CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access_log combined

    DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php index.php4 index.php5

    <Directory /var/www/public_html>

        Options -Indexes +IncludesNOEXEC +FollowSymLinks

        allow from all 

        AllowOverride All

    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

I can access without any problems to www.someserver.com and www.otherserver.com, but otherserver.com (w/out www) returns HTTP error 304: Permission Denied.

I'm clueless about what the reason could be.

Note that all hostnames are pointing to the same IP address.

Any help would be kindly appreciated.
