httpd VirtualHost overwrite another VirtualHost

Question

I have a problem whereby my VirtualHost is overriding another VirtualHost on the same domain.

httpd.conf

IncludeOptional conf.d/*.conf

example.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example/
        ServerName www.example.com
        ServerAlias www.example.com
    Redirect permanent / https://www.example.com/
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:443>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example/
    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/ssl/example/example.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/ssl/example/example.key
    SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/httpd/ssl/example/chain.cer
    ServerName www.example.com
    ServerAlias www.example.com
</VirtualHost>

get.example.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html/get.example/
        ServerName get.example.com
        ServerAlias get.example.com
</VirtualHost>

When I created get.example.conf and when I accessed example.com, it is showing the content of get.example.com

Does anyone knows what is going wrong with my configuration?

Because, you don't have any configuration for example.com, only for www.example.com. Try adding ServerName example.com and ServerAlias www.example.com. It's all. — Jose Ayram, Aug 01 '19 at 19:59

Found out that I need to include the non-www for the VirtualHost as well. It works if I entered www.example.com but not example.com.

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName example.com
    Redirect permanent / http://www.example.com/
</VirtualHost>

You need add a ServerAlias with www – Jose Ayram Aug 01 '19 at 19:58

You just have to set up de ServerAlias. In your example, it should be enough to do as follow:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example/
        ServerName example.com
        ServerAlias www.example.com
    Redirect permanent / https://www.example.com/
</VirtualHost>

Note that ServerName doesn't has www., so that it's gonna match http://example.com, while with the ServerAlias it's gonna match http://www.example.com

Try to change the order of ServerName and ServerAlias to your get.example.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName get.example.com
        ServerAlias get.example.com
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html/get.example/
</VirtualHost>
