I think this is a problem about Apache and virtual hosting..... but I am not sure... I have looked at the section in the Webmin book which has lots of information but …. it is in too great a detail for me to understand in overview what I should do.
I have been following the suggestions here to install Joomla http://help.joomla.org/content/view/1947/306/ and have run into a fundamental problem. I wish to run the Joomla installer and I will host my own domain using dyndns for the fixed IP. The domain name and the server host name will be different. My server has the following directories in /var/www calamaris joomla torrentflux What I am trying to do is browse from a client pc to http://hostname/joomla to get the installer to run. The problem is that this gives a 404 error message..... the browser appears to search the Internet rather than the local server. The error is "The requested URL /joomla was not found on this server. Apache/2.2.11 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.6-3ubuntu4.1 with Suhosin-Patch Server at hostname Port 80" If I go to http://hostname then the torrentflux login page appears instantly. I can see that I have to change something so that the Joomla directory is found but I am not clear what, I guess it is in Apache. Are there any suggestions of where to look? I am running Ubuntu 9.04 Server 64 bit. I know this sounds like a headache ... so thanks for any suggestions you can make ...
