Question

Pretty confused right now, while i feel i know a bit about vhosts this has confused me for no end of time and i thought i’ll seek help after so long :p

I turn off 1 vhost and phpmyadmin will work locally, turn this vhost back on, phpmyadmin ends up at this webpage with my 404 for the site. the vhost in question:

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
DocumentRoot /var/www/mayfieldafc/docroot
ServerName mayfieldafc.com
ServerAlias mayfieldafc.local
#CustomLog logs/mayfieldafc-transfer.log combined
#ErrorLog logs/mayfieldafc-error.log

php_value include_path "/usr/share/php:/var/www/mayfieldafc"
php_value error_reporting 2047
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off
php_flag short_open_tag off

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

<Directory /var/www/mayfieldafc/docroot>
    Options None
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

RewriteEngine on
#RewriteLogLevel 9
#RewriteLog /var/log/mod_rewrite.log

# Dispatcher wiring
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !dispatch\.php$
RewriteCond /var/www/mayfieldafc/docroot%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(/.*)$ /dispatch.php?url=$1 [L,QSA]

</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
DocumentRoot /var/www/mayfieldafc/docroot
ServerName assets.mayfieldafc.com
ServerAlias assets-mayfieldafc.local
#CustomLog logs/mayfieldafc-transfer.log combined
#ErrorLog logs/mayfieldafc-error.log

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

<Directory /var/www/mayfieldafc/docroot>
    Options None
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

If anybody knows anything about vhosts and phpmyadmin i’d love you forever 😀

Answer 1

In the end nothing i could change in my vhost settings was working so i went with the obvious answer.

I just created a separate vhost with a

servername phpmyadmin.local

and just pointing the document to myphpadmin on my hard drive and all was good.
