I've configured two Virtual Hosts using a single IP and following the documentation. Here the conf:

VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers:
*:80                   is a NameVirtualHost
         default server host1.example.com (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:1019)
         port 80 namevhost host1.example.com (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:1019)
         port 80 namevhost host2.example.com (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:1024)

If I point my browser to host1.example.com or host2.example.com, I can see the correct corresponding page. If I point to the server name server.example.com, I see the host1.example.com index.html, and not the index.html in the corresponding DocumentRoot (/var/www/html). Is this the correct behaviour?

  • show us your actual apache configuration, I'm not sure what you have given us. Commented Feb 9, 2014 at 15:28

Yes, the behavior changes when you enable virtual hosts from serving the global DocumentRoot directory to serve the first defined virtual host.

You should set a first virtual host (that appears in your configuration) to serve /var/www/html and then one for host1 and another for host2.

  • Makes sense. And what if I would not use the DocumentRoot /var/www/html directory? Should I comment it in the httpd.conf? Commented Feb 11, 2014 at 14:41
