With the help of diverse web sites and odd bits of documentation, I
have now solved the problem I had of getting virtual hosts working
with apache2 under Debian 7.1. Just in case it is of use to anyone
else, here is how to do it:
(1) add
ServerName localhost
to the end of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
(2) add an IP address for each virtual host to the end of
/etc/hosts, for example:
127.0.2.1 example1.com
127.0.3.1
http://www.example2.com/
(3) create a configuration file for each virtual host and put it
in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/, for example:
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/example1.conf
NameVirtualHost 127.0.2.1:80
<VirtualHost 127.0.2.1:80>
ServerName example1.com
ServerAlias
http://www.example1.com/
DocumentRoot /home/user/example1/WebSite
Alias /webdir /home/user/some/other/dir
</VirtualHost>
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/example2.conf
NameVirtualHost 127.0.3.1:80
<VirtualHost 127.0.3.1:80>
ServerName
http://www.example2.com/
DocumentRoot /home/user/example2
Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/user/example2/CGI/cgi-bin/
ErrorLog /etc/apache2/error.log
</VirtualHost>
(4) restart apache2:
apache2ctl -k restart
