Solved. |
| 29 |
For some reason or another in my /etc/hosts file I had: |
| 30 |
10.0.0.112 server.ca |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
And apache was accessing my production box1 |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
box1 - production |
| 35 |
box2 - work in progress |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I changed in hosts to: |
| 38 |
10.0.0.112 www.server.ca |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
And apache was resolving accessing box2 only. |
| 41 |
Strange. |
