[codeb]

Please help me to make my subdomains in Apache.
1st I'm from Bosnia and please forgive me on bad English.
I have one public IP address with Apache and Mail server.
I change in Windows->Drivers->Etc->Host
123.456.78 www.domain.com
123.456.78 subdomain.domain.com
Then ih Httpd in Apache COnfig dir set
--------- Start -----------------
NameVirtualHost *:80
#MAIN SERVER
<VirtualHost 123.45678:80>
ServerName www.domain.com
ServerAdmin [e-mail]
DirectoryRoot "C:\apache\htdocs"
</VirtualHost>
#SUBDOMAIN
<VirtualHost 123.45678:80>
ServerName subdomain.domain.com
ServerAdmin [e-mail]
DirectoryRoot "C:\apache\htdocs\subdomain"
</VirtualHost>
-------------- End---------------
When I write subdimain.domain.com in my web browser I get ugly message "The page cannot be displayed..."

Well, there seems to be a typo in your VirtualHost ips, there's lacking a "."

codeb,

Technical problems require precise communication, and it will be difficult here, since this forum is in English.

We will be happy to try to help, but it might be better of you could find an Apache forum in your native language, or find someone to help you translate "technical english." If this is possible, it would be easier for you. If not, please try to ask "small" questions, so that they are easy to understand.

Jim
