We can help, but hey, you decided to manage a webserver,
so shouldn't you try by yourself first?

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/ and the pages it
refers to are quite clear and do contain examples.
If you search the history of this group you will find many
more examples.

If it doesn't work, you can come back here with the error
messages you got and concrete questions.

Don't you think after reading the fmanual, he should then Google? Usenet
is not a personalised Google.

Then again, perhaps I missed a memo.

Yes, you are right. That's why I said: "If you search the
history of this group you will find many more examples."
I meant, search Google groups.

I didn't see more articles in this thread. You wrote the
third one ;)

I also would like to know how its done. I have one IP address but
would like virtual hosts to be able to redirect the traffic to the
correct folder depending on the url. i have read the apache docs, but
the config still doesnt work

NameVirtualHost *:80

Options All -Indexes




DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example.one.com
ServerName www.example.one.com
ErrorLog logs/error_log
CustomLog logs/access_log combined



ServerAdmin salma@wisecrack.ca
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/dev.example.one.com
ServerName dev.example.one.com
ErrorLog logs/dev_error_log
CustomLog logs/dev_access_log combined

That's not a directory.

The config looks ok.
Anything in the logs?
Did you restart apache after the changes?
Does it run? Or does it refuse to start due to other
errors. Running httpd -t will check the correctness of
httpd.conf.
Do the directories actually contain a default document
(e.g. index.html or whatever you defined)?
Do the requests reach your box to begin with?
