This is what I have at the moment inside /etc/apache2/sites-available/default (I simply changed DocumentRoot, commented out RedirectMatch ~/$ /apache2-default, and added in ServerName server and ServerAlias newpagename: You also need to have newpagename as one of your host names. In your /etc/hosts you need to have something like: 10.0.0.1 server newpagename > NameVirtualHost * > <VirtualHost *> > ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost > > # DocumentRoot /var/www/ > DocumentRoot /home/glen/webdir > <Directory /> > Options FollowSymLinks > AllowOverride None > </Directory> > <Directory /var/www/> Since you changed the document root, this directory directive is not really related to your new location. If you want to set options for your new document root, you need <Directory /home/glen/webdir/>. Of course the options from the main configuration file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf for <Directory /> apply to /home/glen/webdir, so you may want to check those as well. > Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews > AllowOverride None > Order allow,deny > allow from all > # This directive allows us to have apache2's default start page > # in /apache2-default/, but still have / go to the right place > # RedirectMatch ^/$ /apache2-default/ > </Directory> > > ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ > <Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin"> > AllowOverride None > Options ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch > Order allow,deny > Allow from all > </Directory> > > ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log > # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit, > # alert, emerg. > LogLevel warn > > CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined > ServerSignature On > > Alias /doc/ "/usr/share/doc/" > <Directory "/usr/share/doc/"> > Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks > AllowOverride None > Order deny,allow > Deny from all > Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128 > </Directory> > > ServerName http://server > ServerAlias newpagename > > </VirtualHost> > > > Regards, > -Glen Like somebody already commented, the http://server is not a valid ServerName.
