Hi! Under Sites > Web Domain > Domain > IP-Address I can choose either the IP address of my server or *. My servers name is something like server.mydomain.com and I have two domains www.mydomain.com and intranet.mydomain.com. So if I go to these addresses in my browser they will go to their respective sites. Like this: server.mydomain.com > correct website ( root ) www.mydomain.com > correct website ( web1 ) intranet.mydomain.com > correct website ( web2 ) However, if I under the settings above ... Domain > IP-Address set my intranet domain to the servers IP address. When I now try to browse to server.mydomian.com it shows the intranet site. Like this: server.mydomain.com > wrong website ( web2 ) www.mydomain.com > correct website ( web1 ) intranet.mydomain.com > correct website ( web2 ) Also, if I only set the IP address of www.mydomain.com then there is no error. It seems to only affect the last added website. Is this a bug? What does the ... Domain > IP-Address do really? What is the difference of setting it to an IP address or just *? , MacGoose
Thats the normal behaviour of the apache webserver and not a bug. You can either use a wildcard (*) in a apache vhost or the IP address. A IP address is always "stronger" then a wildcard. The result is that if you mix IP and * based vhosts, then a website gets redirected to the IP based site. So the result of this, never mix IP's and * for websites that use the same IP, either use * for all websites that point to a specific IP or use * for all sites. A IP has to be used if you need a ssl certificate, otherwise * is fine as well. If you like to know the details of how an apache server works, you might want to take a look at the apache server documentation: http://www.apache.org/
