Configuring an Apache server
Configuration is in /etc/apache2
Store site content in /home/www
mkdir /home/www chown www-data:www-data -R /home/www
Path goes with TLD first, and a few other rules. Access and Error logs are stored in the TLD's directory, with the subdomain prefixed. E.g:
Domain / Subdomain | Root Dir | |
---|---|---|
www.attie.co.uk |
→ | /home/www/attie.co.uk/www
|
wiki.attie.co.uk |
→ | /home/www/attie.co.uk/wiki
|
joke.test.attie.co.uk |
→ | /home/www/attie.co.uk/test/joke
|
As the default configuration will deny access to .ht*
, we can use .htinfo
to store the configuration and logs.
Content | ${ROOTDIR}/
|
Config | ${ROOTDIR}/.htinfo/config
|
Access Log | ${ROOTDIR}/.htinfo/access.log
|
Error Log | ${ROOTDIR}/.htinfo/error.log
|
Start/Restart
service apache2 restart
Setup sites
Add a site file in /etc/apache2/sites-available
.
Enable the site by symlinking it into /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
.
If there is a reason to load one site before another, then use a prefix other than 50.
ln -s /home/www/attie.co.uk/www/.htinfo/config /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/50-www.attie.co.uk
Sample config
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@attie.co.uk ServerName attie.co.uk ServerAlias www.attie.co.uk DocumentRoot "/home/www/attie.co.uk/www" CustomLog "/home/www/attie.co.uk/www/.htinfo/access.log" combined ErrorLog "/home/www/attie.co.uk/www/.htinfo/error.log" </VirtualHost>
