Second Hostname Not Loading on Apache Virtual Host

<VirtualHost *:80>

That is the first line but the doing it in italics screwed it up.

I use notepad++ to tab out an entire section i want to paste here then the nobebb detects it as code.

Yeah, I didn't realize it did that.

@ajstringham my CentOS6.5 webserver has apache 2.2 ithink and when i setup this Centos7 server it is 2.4. I had to add the directory element to my existing virtual host info that i copy/pasted over to the new server.

		<Directory />
			Require all granted
			Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
			AllowOverride All
			Order allow,deny
			Allow from all
		</Directory>

It's all one server. Those settings are in a different Apache file than the virtual-hosts file.

I have 3 files in my /etc/apache2/sites-enabled folder. 000-default.conf, builtbyart.com.conf, and thanksaj.com.conf. The default one has to be there. However, the actual virtual host is brought online when you run:

a2ensite builtbyart.com
a2ensite thanskaj.com

The site name must correspond to a .conf. So if I'm bringing thanksaj.com online, the file has to be thanksaj.com.conf.

What I can't figure out is why ThanksAJ.com DOES work but BuiltByArt.com DOES NOT. They are configured exactly the same.

Well I cannot help you as my webserver is a simple standard CentOS box with a clean apache install. All the settings are in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Yeah, the RPM-based system vs a Debian-based system.

@ajstringham does not explain why apache config files are different. one would think that would work the same because it is apache not the OS.

I have even tried redoing Wordpress.

EDIT: I just checked and had forgotten to redo Wordpress after deleting the old files...oops. Let's try that again..

True.

One is being picked up as the default fall through and the other is not.

thanksajdotcom

Hmm....

thanksajdotcom

I checked the 000-default.conf file. It's all generic. Nothing set in there. So that's not it.

Ubuntu's non-standard Apache config files don't make this any easier either.

I figured out the issue. I had everything set up correctly. Turns out my NoIP settings were wrong. Once I fixed those (that is what actually fixed it), it all started working! @scottalanmiller helped out tremendously! Thanks all!
