webmin-servers-apache webserver and go to configuration - edit configurstion or click on the 'virtual server' to edit only the specific domain
if the newly created domain has not propagated yet or you typed in a incorrect url then apache would take the first domain listed in the virtualhost section.
I already took a look there and all seems to be correct,
as I have had this problem before.
Update:
I noticed that I can ftp to the domain at
ftp.domain.com
I can also log into the webmin at
domain.com:10000
Any ideas?
FTP and Webmin are irrelevant to this issue. ronald is correct about the most likely cause.
It's pretty much always mismatched NameVirtualHost and VirtualHost sections, or you have a * in one or both of those sections (which <i>can</i> work in very simple cases, but nobody <i>ever</i> gets it right, so I strongly discourage it's use).
Read this and if you still don't see the trouble, come back with the relevant sections of your httpd.conf, and we'll tell you how to fix it:

Hi
I have read it a few times before, but it does not tell you where to find the NameVirtualHost and VirtualHost sections
I have had this problem before but cant remember where and how it was fixed.
I have a client waiting on his domain,
which seems to be right,
but I guess something is sill wrong.

You haven't mentioned your OS, which determines where this configuration happens. It's in httpd.conf on Red Hat based systems, and somewhere in /etc/apache2 on Debian/Ubuntu systems, and somewhere in /usr/local/etc/apache22 on FreeBSD, etc. etc.
The actual root cause is misconfiguration in Virtualmin, though. The documentation I just linked explains where those options are in Virtualmin's Module Config. If you configure Virtualmin correctly, it will not create VirtualHost sections that don't work right...so, fix your configuration, and recreate the problem virtual server, and all will be well.

I am using CentOS Linux 5
Okay, on CentOS all of the options you mentioned would be setup in the /etc/httpd/httpd.conf file.
Or, as Joe said, you could use Virtualmin to make those edits, by going into Webmin -> Servers -> Apache website, and getting at the config files from there.
You'd want to make sure that the NameVirtualHost and VirtualHost options were explicitly setting an IP address, rather than using "*" as we've seen on a few systems here and there. The "*" generally just causes trouble :-)

I totally removed the domain from the server.
I have now manually added it to:
Apache server &
Bind server
It now shows up correctly displaying the correct domain.
But yes there is a but:
It does not show up now in the virtualmin domain drop down selection.
Where and how do I edit this.

Wait, why? That's not what we suggested at all.
I recommended you correct your Virtualmin configuration (with pointers to the docs on how and where to do that), and then recreate the domain (in Virtualmin, of course!).

It would not allow me to create any domain at all.
And there is someone waiting for this domain.
The configuration was working before and nothing was changed.
I will try that and see how it goes.
Ok I manually removed the domain.
Created it again in virtualmin and after
a few minor setting corrections works fine now.
I am going to go over the servers settings again as I seem to always have to change a few things when I create a new Virtual Server.
Is this normal?
Hi there,
What is it that you're finding you need to change in the Virtual Servers you setup?

No. Not even a little bit. ;-)
Look over your Server Template(s), and the Module Configuration. Pretty much everything that gets setup during creation is configurable, so if you don't like what the virtual servers look like when they are created, it means you haven't configured Virtualmin to do what you want. ;-)
