I am trying to access my server as

http://somedomain.com http://anotherdomain.com http://serverip

With NameVirutalHost configuration, the domain names are redirected to their respective folders. But for serverip, I want apache to serve me a different folder. But it is serving me the content for anotherdomain.com. My system is Ubuntu 11.04. How can this issue be solved ?

Can we get output the virtualhost section of both sites? – Rilindo Jul 26 '11 at 17:27
You mean you want the exact configuration options ? – sul4bh Jul 26 '11 at 17:41

Try defining a NameVirtualHost for serverip as you would for any other name. It should also be the first one you define (this will make it the default virtual host if no HTTP Host: header is received, as often happens when you point a web browser at an IP address).

I already tried that. I checked that the browsers send IP address in HOST field and used the IP address for ServerName. But that does not seem to work. – sul4bh Jul 26 '11 at 17:39
I added ServerName <serverip> in a VirtualHost directive and it seems to work fine now. Thanks for you suggestion. – sul4bh Jul 26 '11 at 18:00
