According to this question, Apache should not simply redirect from other ServerAlias domains to the ServerName domain, but in my case, it does.
For example, when I access www.yannbane.net, which is one of my domains point to my server's IP, it redirects me to yannbane.com. When I access www.yannbane.com, it redirects to yannbane.com as well.
This is the behavior that I actually want, but I don't understand what's happening here!
Here's my site's config:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName yannbane.com
ServerAlias yannbane.net yannbane.org www.yannbane.net www.yannbane.org www.yannbane.com
DocumentRoot "/var/www/yannbane.com/wordpress"
ErrorLog "/var/log/yannbane.com/wordpress/error.log"
</VirtualHost>
Here's apache2.conf:
ServerName localhost
Mutex file:${APACHE_LOCK_DIR} default
PidFile ${APACHE_PID_FILE}
Timeout 300
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 5
User ${APACHE_RUN_USER}
Group ${APACHE_RUN_GROUP}
HostnameLookups Off
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

Here's my .htaccess in my WordPress directory (which is the document root for this virtual host):
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Can anyone tell me why are these redirects happening? And what's the appropriate way of achieving such behavior?
