Zone error??

Hi,

Ive been searching everywhere and pulling my hair out trying to get this working as it was but then gone.

I have a domain lets call abc.com and a sub domain forums.abc.com

Now I used to be able to access the forums and the main page, but all of a sudden when I go to abc.com and forums.abc.com they both point to abc.com instead of 2 different directory's. I'm not sure if its a DNS issue or a vhost issue.

BTW I do have 2 ip's available to use if needed. 1.1.1.1 and 1.1.1.2 for example

Either way I will post both file and tell me what you think

abc.net.db

Code:

;
; BIND data file for abc.com
;
$TTL    32400
@       IN      SOA     abc.com. sysadmin.abc.com. (
                            2009060301         ; Serial
                                  7200         ; Refresh
                                   120         ; Retry
                               2419200         ; Expire
                                604800)        ; Default TTL
;
       IN        NS    ns1.abc.com.
       IN        NS    ns2.abc.com.
; Google Mail
                        IN      MX 10   ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
                        IN      MX 20   ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
;
abc.com.          IN      A       1.1.1.1
www                     IN      CNAME   abc.com.
forums                  IN      CNAME   abc.com.

and here is my vhost file
http-vhost.conf

Code:

ServerName abc.com
NameVirtualHost *:80


<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin sysadmin@abc.com
    DocumentRoot "/opt/lampstack-1.1-2/apache2/htdocs"
    ServerName abc.com
    ErrorLog "logs/abc.com-error_log"
    CustomLog "logs/abc.com-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin sysadmin@abc.com
    DocumentRoot "/opt/lampstack-1.1-2/apache2/forum_htdocs"
    ServerName forums.abc.com
    ErrorLog "logs/forums.abc.com-error_log"
    CustomLog "logs/forums.abc.com-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is not a DNS issue but rather an Apache issue...

Try adding:

Quote:

ServerAlias forums.abc.com

to the second vhost setup.

Make sure to restart apache after making any changes.

I've tried that, with no luck. Should I post this in the apache forum if you think its an apache issue?

I'll have someone move this over there for you.

Now.. you say you used to be able to access them fine. Were any changes made prior to these not working anymore?

Did it stop working after a reboot or something installed, configuration change, etc...?
