I need to add a subdomain to this server, i added this 

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html
    ServerName images.login.acorn.lt
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html
    ServerName login.acorn.lt
</VirtualHost>

config to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and restarted with apachectl -k graceful , without error. But images.login.acorn.lt is down

  • Which effect do you expect? Both virtual hosts have the same document root. They will show the same content.

In order to have images.login.acorn.lt to work you have to assign the same IP as login.acorn.lt (they have both to point to your address).

At the moment images.login.acorn.lt is not registered.

$ host login.acorn.lt
login.acorn.lt has address 79.98.30.58
$ host images.login.acorn.lt
Host images.login.acorn.lt not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

  • By your DNS registrar. In the same way you registered login.acorn.lt

You have register your custom sub-domain name with dns registrar to make it it working. I mean you need a valid DNS record for your subdomain too. You can accomplish this by either setting up an individual DNS entry for each new subdomain, But every namebasedvirtualhost has to have a valid DNS entry. Moreover custom domain name must be allowed on server.For Custom sudomain domain name you have to specify and register proper dns.
