Stupid Vhost... please help

Before I get yelled at and told that this has been delt with tons of times,
I;ve read the manual, I've read all the posts, but I think I'm just missing
something here.. and hopefully another set of eyes can pick up what I'm
missing...
also I had this working once... then I had to re-install apache and now it
doesn't work...

well it works, but it all goes to the main page's index file...

Do I need to comment out the other listen and documentroot to make this work
also if I ping either name below I dont get a response it says it cannot
find it...

also if I ping my IP I get a response, but if I ping the servername I get a
"cannot find host please check spelling... " error


and if it helps any the conf file can be viewed at
http://www.karmparker.com/httpd.conf

Thanks in advance...


Listen 80
Listen 8081
Listen 8082

NameVirtualHost *

<VirtualHost *:8081>
ServerName caferisko
DocumentRoot "c:/web/028_caferisko"
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:8082>
ServerName vig
DocumentRoot "c:/web/025-leikin"
</VirtualHost>

The NameVirtualHost and <VirtualHost> have to match exactly and I think the
servername needs to be complete

Try:

NameVirtualHost * <--- if no port assignment here

<VirtualHost *> <--- then not here either
ServerName caferisko <--- what is this? caferisko.domain.com ???
www.caferisko.com ??? fix it
DocumentRoot "c:/web/028_caferisko"
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName vig
DocumentRoot "c:/web/025-leikin"
</VirtualHost>

Setup 4: You have multiple domains going to the same IP and also want to serve multiple ports. By defining the ports in the
"NameVirtualHost" tag, you can allow this to work. If you try using <VirtualHost name:port> without the NameVirtualHost name:port or
you try to use the Port directive, your configuration will not work.
Server configuration:

...
NameVirtualHost 111.22.33.44:80
NameVirtualHost 111.22.33.44:8080

<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44:80>
ServerName www.domain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/domain-80
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44:8080>
ServerName www.domain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/domain-8080
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44:80>
ServerName www.otherdomain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/otherdomain-80
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44:8080>
ServerName www.otherdomain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/otherdomain-8080
</VirtualHost>
>>

in your case:

Listen 80
Listen 8081
Listen 8082

# NameVirtualHost *:80 # unclear if this one is needed since you don't have one below
NameVirtualHost *:8081
NameVirtualHost *:8082


<VirtualHost *:8081>
ServerName caferisko
DocumentRoot "c:/web/028_caferisko"
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:8082>
ServerName vig
DocumentRoot "c:/web/025-leikin"
</VirtualHost>
