I'll apologize now if this is off-topic, but I looked over the mail
lists at MARC & didn't see another list that matched well. If I'm
barking up the wrong tree please point me to the correct one. Anyway,
here goes:
I've set up a webserver w/ 2 name-based virtual hosts:
1) an http server (http://name1.mydom.com/), and
2) an https server (https://namessl.mydom.com/).
I've declared the document root directories as shown in my config file
snippets below.
Both servers serve the files I expect them to (the files from their own
doc root). But what I don't understand is why the servers behave as they
do when the VirtualHost and ServerName are "mis-matched"; i.e.:
1) why does the secure server serve docs from the regular server's doc
root? In other words:
https://name1.mydom.com/ ---> index.html file from namessl's doc root
2) Why does the http server serve docs from its own doc root even when
used with the https server's name?
http://namessl.mydom.com/ ---> index.html file from name1's doc root
I had expected an error message for these mis-matches between
VirtualHost and ServerName. Clearly I'm either confused about how
Apache is _supposed_ to operate, OR I've bonked the config file. I'd
appreciate it if someone could straighten me out.
----------- config file snippets follow: ---------------------
For the http server:
<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44:80>
DocumentRoot /home/webfoot/public_html
ServerName name1.mydom.com
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/home/webfoot/cgi-bin/"
<Directory "/home/webfoot/cgi-bin">
...
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
For the https server:
<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44:443>
DocumentRoot /home/webfoot/secure_html
ServerName namessl.mydom.com
ScriptAlias /cgi-ssl/ "/home/webfoot/cgi-ssl/"
<Directory "/home/webfoot/cgi-ssl">
...
</Directory>
...
</VirtualHost>
