The above is the content of vhost.staging.pdatwo.com.conf.

So I have a staging server, and made a new one, and because puppet was broken I tried to do make sure that /etc was the same, so I checked the missing configs and one of the things I found was that the file vhost.stag.pdatwo.com.conf was missing, so I added it and renamed it vhost.staging.pdatwo.com.conf.

Before that, the page I got was the Apache test page, so I thought Apache was successfully installed, but when I added the config file, it stopped working and I got a 500 error page from varnish. When I turned off varnish, I got a 502 nginx error, so I am thinking there might be a file that points to vhost.stag.pdatwo.com.conf, do you know what the file might be? Also, I am not sure if that's the case, because I used the string staging.pdatwo.com in the puppet config. What are some of the things I can do to see what might be the issue, because the Apache config are virtually the same after I inspected the folders of the server where Apache works correctly and the server where Apache doesn't seem to work.

Version of Apache is 2.2 and I am using an old CENTOS 6 machine.

I know the CENTOS 6 is deprecated but Puppet doesn't work on CENTOS 7, or at least our project that uses Puppet to generate the site doesn't work on CENTOS 7.

I heard that I had to run "a2dissite" before modifying the file name "a2ensite" and then run this after modifying the file name, but is it the case?
