    Hi Aslan, the above should work if other.example.com is set up in DNS, but I would recommend that you use separate virtualhost files so that you can control the virtual hosts independently.  This is what I recommend for /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/newscoop-vhost.conf

    <VirtualHost *:80>
          ServerName www.dreamsciencerecordings.com

          ServerAdmin youremail@dreamsciencerecordings.com

          DocumentRoot /var/lib/newscoop
          DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

          <Directory /var/lib/newscoop>
                  Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
                  AllowOverride All
                  #Uncomment the line below only for Apache 2.4 or later
                  #Require all granted
          </Directory>
    </VirtualHost>

    For /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/airtime-vhost.conf I would recommend the SSL configuration shown at http://sourcefabric.booktype.pro/airtime-25-for-broadcasters/secure-login-with-ssl/

    This is more complicated but makes your Airtime server considerably more secure. Once you are familiar with self-signed certificates, you might consider using one for the admin/ login of your Newscoop site.

    Please let us know if you need more help.

    Cheers!

    Daniel

    Hello! Running Airtime on a server with anything else is asking for trouble as you've already experienced. Separate the two! Read the documentation!  :x

    for those of you that are looking here to find a solution for yourselves you can try this.. I haven't yet but I think it will work..  edit your .conf file and then restart apache2  im setting up a server to test it now =) 

    <VirtualHost *:80>
            # This first-listed virtual host is also the default for *:80
            ServerName www.example.com
            ServerAlias example.com 
            DocumentRoot /var/lib/newscoop
    </VirtualHost>

    <VirtualHost *:80>
            ServerName other.example.com
            DocumentRoot /var/www/otherdomain
    </VirtualHost>
