Hello and thanks for all that you do for the community. I was not looking forward to having to figure out how to compile 2.2.0 and I'm very grateful that you did it for me Very Happy Thanks

Ok, on to my issues. I've had a server running for a couple years now that is back in the states. Not very powerful and I've been running into a lot of issues with it crashing when I'm processing pictures to add to my gallery. So I now live in Japan and have a server here and I am moving some of my domains to this box. Up until now everything has gone smooth but when trying to get my VirtualHost tags to work right I'm pulling out my hair.

Ok so say my IP is 220.157.147.144

Here's what I have in the httpd.conf
Code:
NameVirtualHost 220.157.147.144

<VirtualHost 220.157.147.144>
   ServerAdmin admin@tazmon.com
   DocumentRoot D:/Webs/Taz
   ServerName tazmon.com
   ServerAlias www.tazmon.com
   ErrorLog logs/tazmon.com-error_log
   CustomLog logs/tazmon.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

But when I use this it doesn't go to the file that's in the D:/Webs/Taz directoy, instead it pulls my default index.htm file from D:/Webs which is my DocumentRoot

Now here's what really makes no sense to me at all. One time while re-typing the whole thing, I made a typo and then it all worked...
Code:
NameVirtualHost 220.157.147.144

<VirtualHost 220.157.1147.144>
   ServerAdmin admin@tazmon.com
   DocumentRoot D:/Webs/Taz
   ServerName tazmon.com
   ServerAlias www.tazmon.com
   ErrorLog logs/tazmon.com-error_log
   CustomLog logs/tazmon.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

Notice the 1147 in the IP... I can't figure this out, I've read through all my Apache2 Manuals, Read through the Apache.org Manual on everything having to do with VirtualHosts and tried it all. If you or anyone here can help me out I would be very grateful.

Thanks,
Taz

Hi

You can try:

Listen 80
..
NameVirtualHost *
<VirtualHost 220.157.147.144>
..
..

or
NameVirtualHost *

<VirtualHost *>
...

When you want to bind to a IP make:

Listen 220.157.147.144:80

Thanks for the help Steffen,

What ended up working was close the the second idea you had.

Listen 80
...
NameVirtualHost *
...
<VirtualHost *>
...

no where in my .conf files do I have my IP which seems kinda strange to me

If I try Listen 220.157.147.144:80 the server won't start. I get a pop up saying, "The requestion operation has failed!" But with just the port it works... Not sure why but this works for the sub-domains too. Thanks for the help.

If the IP is not 127.0.0.1 (localhost) make sure that you tell it Windows in the hosts file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
With a non static IP just Listen the Port.
