https://0.0.0.0/wiki resolves and works fine via both public and local IP addresses.

However https://mydomainname.com/wiki loads my web site home page and not the wiki page?

On Yosemite server (10.10.2), my web site files reside in a custom location, not sure if this has anything to do with it?

Also, I have tried removing the /wiki/ from index file in websites tab. Both with or without has no impact.

Wiki server states "Reachable over the internet at "0.0.0.0/wiki" (0.0.0.0 = my public IP)

My DNS host points mydomain.com to my server IP for www, ftp and mail

Server DNS points same to localhost.

Have the same issue for WebDAV not resolving. At a complete loss as to how to resolve via domain???

may have found a solution...

Interestingly, I created a new server DNS record for wiki.mydomain.com.

Locally, this domain now resolves, whereas, mydomain.com/wiki or www.mydomain.com/wiki does not work at all.

Simply entering wiki.mydomain.com (without /wiki) works.

I've updated the public name server records so should know the answer when it populates the web then. Theoretically, this should work.
