Re: [cobalt-users] same domain name, different host name question



I have a domain www.domain.com
I want to have another (on the same or a different IP) jale.domain.com

When I try to create the new site with host name jale and domain name domain.com it tells me:
Another site is already aliased to the domain domain.com

I thought this should be valid, 2 machine/host names on the same domain. Am I missing the boat on something?

Hi - before anyone jumps on me and says LITB, awesome Gerald gave me the book-reference :)

I have all of this setup and it works fine except for one thing - I created a domain.conf file that looks like:

<VirtualHost 123.123.123.123>
ServerName www.jale.domain.com
ServerAdmin siteadminname
ServerAlias jale.domain.com
DocumentRoot /home/sites/www.domian.com/users/jale/web
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}    !^123.123.123.123(:80)?$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}    !^www.jale.domain.com(:80)?$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)    http://www.jaledomain.com/$1 [L,R]
RewriteOptions inherit
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .cgi
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .pl
</VirtualHost>

- the only thing I don't like is that when I goto jale.domain.com the URL changes to www.jale.domain.com - it all works, just looks funny when you go to the page. Anything I can do about it? If it is a big deal I'll just leave it, if easy I'd do something about it.

Thanks,
Jale
