Name Based Virtual Hosting url not found

I am trying to set up a website with name based virtual hosting. Now when I visit the website, lukej.us, I get a url not found error. Here is the conf file

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName www.lukej.us
  ServerAlias lukej.us *.lukej.us
  DocumentRoot /vars/www/html/lukej.html
</VirtualHost>


<Directory /vars/www/html/>
  AllowOverride All
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
</directory>

DocumentRoot is supposed to be a directory. It is the root folder from which all files will be served. You attempted to specify a file, which then gets interpreted as a directory, since it expects a directory. So its trying to serve from the directory /vars/www/html/lukej.html/ which probably doesn't exist.

You probably wanted something like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName www.lukej.us
  ServerAlias lukej.us *.lukej.us
  DocumentRoot /vars/www/html/
  DirectoryIndex lukej.html
</VirtualHost>

This will serve files from the /vars/www/html/ directory, and will show the lukej.html as the index file (when you access the path / from the web).
