Creating an Apache Virtual Directory, but updating Active Directory DNS
- by SnoConeGod
Hello all,
I'm just getting started with using the Zend Framework and am following a recommended procedure where I am supposed to create an Apache Virtual Directory for the public-facing portion of a new Zend project. I don't THINK I had any issues creating the Virtual Directory, but my knowledge of the required DNS changes is rather lacking. The dev server I'm using is on a Microsoft Windows Active Directory domain, so I've added A records for both the server name and the subdomain. Still, trying to browse to the site from a Windows 7 PC isn't working properly. What am I missing? What's the proper set of steps for getting an Apache-served subdomain to appear properly in a peer computer's web browser? Details below:
server: Debian command-line only, freshly installed today with Zend Server CE LAMP stack
server name: ZENDEV
subdomain: SQUARE.ZENDEV
AD Domain functional level: 2008 mixed (run by a mishmash of 03 and 08 servers)
attempting to visit the sites: http://square.zendev and http://square.zendev.domain.local (name of domain redacted, but using the local (not com) suffix)
Apache Virtual Directory added to httpd.conf:
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/square/public"
ServerName square.localhost
</VirtualHost>
Is this only a problem with DNS? Or with DNS and my Virtual Directory?
Thanks!
John
