I'm trying to set up a subdomain on my ec2 account but can't figure out what's going on. I've looked for a few hours and haven't been able to find an answer :-/

I'm trying to set up a subdomain using virtual hosts but no matter what I try the browser can't find the subdomain :-(

I have the following vhosts files set up:

apache2/sites-available/mysite (this site currently works)



    <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName mysite.com
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        DocumentRoot /home/sites/mysite

        <Directory /home/sites/mysite>
            Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
            AllowOverride All
            Order allow,deny
            allow from all
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mysite-error.log

        LogLevel warn

        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mysite-access.log combined

    </VirtualHost>

apache2/sites-available/red (this is the subdomain I'm trying to set up)



    <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName red.mysite.com
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        DocumentRoot /var/www/red
        <Directory /var/www/red>
            Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
            AllowOverride All
            Order allow,deny
            allow from all
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/red-error.log

        LogLevel warn

        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/red-access.log combined

    </VirtualHost>

Apache mod_rewrite is enabled.

I've enabled both sites using a2ensite and I make sure I restart apache every time I make a change.

/etc/hosts



    127.0.0.1 localhost
    127.0.0.1 mysite.com
    127.0.0.1 red.mysite.com

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
