Can I host two sites, one domain based and on ip based, on the same apache server?












0















Am trying to host website example.com on my current Ubuntu server.



I have created the directories for it: /var/www/html/example.com/public_html



and within sites-enabled I created example.com.conf



<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
ServerAlias www.example.com
ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/public_html

<Directory /var/www/example.com/public_html>
Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/example.com-error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/example.com-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>


Just changed the DNS so it will take a while to make sure that part works.



However, I'm currently using the same server with just the IP address to do some Perl scripts they're called by x.x.x.x/cgi-bin/perlscript.pl



And that part has stopped working.



The error log contains




AH01276: Cannot serve directory /var/www/html/: No matching
DirectoryIndex
(index.html,index.cgi,index.pl,index.php,index.xhtml,index.htm) found,
and server-generated directory index forbidden by Options directive




So since I just set up just the conf file for the domain name based server, did I somehow mess up everything?



Can Ubuntu host two virtual servers where one is domain name based and the other just IP based?



---UPDATE---



The DNS update was quick enough that new domain website, example.com, works. Now I just need to be able to get back to working off my other website based purely on IP address.
