apache 2 help

[deano]

Hi,

running apache on centos 4.3, main site is up and running fine in /var/www/html

How would i go about adding another site but on a specefic port?

so far i've added this to the bottom of my httpd.conf file:-

<VirtualHost *:20000>
DocumentRoot /www/vhost1
ServerName www.deano.test
</VirtualHost>

but i dont get anything displayed in a browser on the servers ip address and that port

what am i doing wrong? never really used apache so trying to learn but getting fed up with it at the moment.

Cheers
Deano

First thing I can think of is whether you've set up Apache to listen on that port?

You'll likely already have a Listen 80 in your main httpd.conf, so add

Listen 20000

underneath it and restart apache (apachectl graceful).
