redirects only working for some virtual hosts

I am using Ubuntu 8.04 server LTS with Apache Server version: Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) Some of my virtual servers redirect and some do not for each server i have added a A record in the Bind DNS server like this one.

mail.domain.com. IN A x.x.x.x

and a redirect virtual host as well


ServerName mail.archesshoes.ca
Redirect permanent / https://mx1.canmail.org/


Please help as i have been struggling with this problem for a long time and do not know what else to try for troubleshooting.

This functionality is required to setup an easy way for clients to remember there webmail interface

It is a very BAD idea to share a https server IP with an IP on a
non-ssl http server (ideally, they should be two separate machines),
I suspect this is where it might be going haywire, if you have another
IP, put the secure server on that.

I just tried to hit it, and my DNS is not getting the instruction to
lookup canmail.

Did the logs show anything?

Not 2 different machines, but 2 different instances of Apache running.

hmmm I might do that, but would be a real hassle, for now i would like to keep things the way they are. Besides some virtual hosts are working fine!

not sure what you mean by that mx1.canmail.org right? DNS should be working ok

nothing in any of the apache logs forget how to check the bind stuff just checking into that now.

Are you sure that the requests are going to the virtualhost you expect
them to go to?


What is the output of httpd -S ?
