12 hours to get it to work and no luck -- friday night 23:13

I have tried on my qnap, I have installed apache on my windows pc and
done the sanme thing. I have read dozens of articles. I hate Apache.
No wonder MSFT dominates the software world. I don;t think I have ever
spent so long trying to so little on a computer.

Installed Apache and it runs on PC.

Changed host file to route mydomain1.com to my pc's ip address and
likewise with mydomain2.com.

Put this code iat the end of http.conf:

NameVirtualHost *


ServerName mydomain1.com
DocumentRoot "C:\Web\Dir1"



ServerName mydomain2.com
ServerPath /whooper
DocumentRoot "C:\Web\Dir2"


and it does nothing. what a total waste of my life

Stupid \ intstead of / mistake.

Still I can only get virtual hosting to work if I type in
mydomain1.com and mydomain2.com into internet eplorer. type in
www.mydomain2.com and the idiot program just flips the url to www.mydomain1.com.

Use NameVirtualHost *:80 and VirtualHost *:80.
Make sure the port matches the Listen directive.

Change the backslashes in the DocumentRoot entries into
forward slashes.
Add a block in each virtual host for its
documentroot.

I wouldn't use ServerPath anymore. At least try to get
things running without it until the sites work normally
with recent browser versions.

I assume you did start Apache? And restart after every
config change?
Any entries in access_log and error_log?

I'm sure you'll get it going before Monday morning,
there's plenty of time left. First have a nap, and / or
make a walk. It often helps.

Good luck.

It was my fault... when you type www.mydomain.com into IE it ignores
the host file.

i am all running at last and posted instructions to get the qnap nas
running with multiple web sites here:
