My domain is: [boosterclubnetwork.com](http://boosterclubnetwork.com) [madisonboosters.com](http://madisonboosters.com)

My web server is (include version): Apache2

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 18.04

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: Linode VPS

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know): Yes

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): No

I want to run multisite on a Ubuntu VPS using LAMP. I want to support subsite domains as well as custom URLs. I am using letsencrypt.

I couldn’t figure out my virtualhost file, so I let my friend take a swing at it, now it’s jacked up even worse.

I am having 2 problems.

1. The url [boosterclubnetwork.com](http://boosterclubnetwork.com) (or [www.boosterclubnetwork.com](http://www.boosterclubnetwork.com)) loads a completely different site on the same server.

2. I get a certificate domain mismatch (this seems to be obviously related to the fact that the wrong site is loading).

\<VirtualHost \*:80\>  
# The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that  
# the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating  
# redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName  
# specifies what hostname must appear in the request’s Host: header to  
# match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this  
# value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.  
# However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.  
ServerName [www.boosterclubnetwork.com](http://www.boosterclubnetwork.com)  
ServerAlias [boosterclubnetwork.com](http://boosterclubnetwork.com)

# Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,

#LogLevel info ssl:warn

# For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
# enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to

# following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
# after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf".
#Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
