Having 2 websites under same IP apache2 configuration?

I know there is plenty of documentation about this, but my problem is different.

I have 2 websites (subdomains) running on one apache2 server.

Site 1 is working fine, site 2 is somehow linked to the apache2 directory /var/www

so when I enter Page 1 I see my page. Page 2 shows me the Apache2 text :

It works!
This is the default web page for this server.
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

SO somewhere the link is setup wrong.

Is apache2 only listening to the pages which are in sites-enabled, or is there something more ?

Because on Sites-enabled I just have these 2 pages and NOT 1 link to /var/www
Do I have to setup the different hostnames somewhere else as well ?

thanks in advance.

THIS ONE IS NOT WORKING :

<VirtualHost *:80>

        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        DocumentRoot /var/www/notworking/

        ServerName notworking.working.de



       RewriteEngine on



        <Directory /var/www/notworking/>

                RailsBaseURI /notworking

                PassengerResolveSymlinksInDocumentRoot on

        </Directory>



        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log



        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,

        # alert, emerg.

        LogLevel warn



        CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

THIS ONE IS WORKING

<VirtualHost *:80>

        ServerName working.working1.de

        DocumentRoot /data/working/www/



        <Directory /data/working/www/>

                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

                AllowOverride All

                Order allow,deny

                allow from all

        </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

I have 2 websites (subdomains)

ServerName working.working1.de <- Working

ServerName xxx.xxxx.de <- Not working

Is it actually a subdomain the one not working? I mean since you do not post the layout of the URL, you should check out if it is an actual subdomain.

Assuming you have the domain working1.de as the working site config depicts, then your not working subdomain should be something like somesite.working1.de

Apache serves the enabled sites (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled) from the pool of available sites (/etc/apache2/sites-available) where actually are symlinks.

When you issue a2ensite mysite_config a symlink is created from sites-available to sites-enabled.

...and it is the default site configuration the one with 'It works!...' where it is enabled by default. You should disable this and keep the file as a reference for future site configurations.

EDIT

As a reference here as a Virtual Host configuration example for two subdomains hosted ad domain.de:

Accesible at http://rails.domain.de

<VirtualHost *:80>

    DocumentRoot /var/www/myrailsapp/public

    ServerName rails.domain.de



    <Directory /var/www/myrailsapp/public>

        AllowOverride all

        Options -MultiViews

        Order allow,deny

        allow from all

    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

Accesible at http://another.domain.de

<VirtualHost *:80>

    DocumentRoot /var/www/mysite

    ServerName another.domain.de



    <Directory /var/www/mysite>

        AllowOverride all

        Options -MultiViews

        Order allow,deny

        allow from all

    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>
