Virtual Hosting in Apache

[hammonjj]

I'm trying to set up a couple of websites on my new server using virtual hosting, but I am having no luck. After viewing multiple websites on how to enable virtual hosting I have modified my httpd.conf file to look like this:

NameVirtual Host *

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.jones-hammondwedding.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/jones-hammondwedding.com/htdocs
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName hammonjj.mine.nu
DocumentRoot /var/www/hammonjj.mine.nu/htdocs
</VirtualHost>

Everytime I try to load the server I get the message:

Could not determine server's fully qualified domain name...

AND

[warn] NameVirtualHost *:0 has no virtualhosts

Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong? I've tried multiple methods of working virtual hosting, but none seem to be working. I'm sure I'm missing something dumb too.

Also, is there a way to avoid using port 80 for http, yet set it up in such a way that visitors to my website won't notice?

Thanks
James

BTW I'm using Ubuntu 6.10 Desktop

Try to add a line like this to /etc/hosts

172.18.32.111 www.jones-hammondwedding.com
172.18.32.111 hammonjj.mine.nu

If you have a nameserver running (dns), add something that achieves the same to it's config.
Replace the IP address by the address of your box.

I'm still getting the exact same error message.

Apache 1 or 2? If 2, why are you editing httpd.conf instead of apache2.conf?

Also if 2, you should place your virtual sites in sites-available and use a2ensite to symlink them into sites-enabled.

[warn] NameVirtualHost *:0 has no virtualhosts

You're NameVirtualHost should look like:

NameVirtualHost *:
not
NameVirtualHost *

I changed what you said, but I still am getting the same error messages, plus I get Name or Service not known: Cannot resolve host name *: ---ignoring.

I moved the stuff in httpd.conf to two seperate config files, one for each site, and created symbolic links to sites-enabled.



In which file should:

NameVirtualHost *:

go?

apache2.conf or the configuration file of the website?
