I have to create a virtual host on a server which, previously hosted a single website (domain name). Now I'm trying to add a second domain on this server (using the same nameserver). What I've done so far:
Initially there was no virtual host so I've made one for the second domain:
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/bla
ServerName www.blabla.com
ServerAlias blabla.com
<Directory /var/www/blabla>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost *:80>
Because nothing happend, I changed the DocumentRoot of the apache server to /var/www (initially was the root document of the first website -/var/www/html) and created a virtual host for the first domain too:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ServerName www.first.com
ServerAlias first.com
<Directory /var/www/html>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost *:80>
In this case, first.com is working ok, but bla.com not.
When I ping blabla.com I get the "unkown host" response. What am I doing wrong? Do I have to modify something in the DNS settings too? Thank you.
