    I have apache 2 installed and i am trying to get 2 sites working. First site is working -www.abc.com.i am trying to get the other one working-blog.abc.com

    i created 2 virtual hosts entry:

    NameVirtualHost 00.00.000.000:80


    <VirtualHost 00.00.000.000:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/sites/abc.com
    ServerName 00.00.000.000
    <Directory "/var/www/sites/abc.com">
    Allow from all
    AllowOverride All
    Options +Indexes
    </Directory>

    </VirtualHost>


    <VirtualHost 00.00.000.000:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/sites/abc.com/wordpress/readme.html
    ServerName blog.abc.com
    <Directory "/var/www/sites/abc.com/wordpress/readme.html">
    Allow from all
    AllowOverride All
    Options +Indexes
    </Directory>
    </VirtualHost>


    After restarting apache i get the following error:

    Warning: DocumentRoot [/var/www/sites/abc.com/wordpress/readme.html] does not exist

    Any idea what is going on?

    I try accessing this folder through www.abc.com/wordpress/readme.html and i was able to see the page.

    permissions on this folder is 755.

    DocumentRoot should be a folder not a file.
