Apache Configuration
/etc/hosts should have the following line:
127.0.0.1 localhost myserver.example.com
The web server configuration is mainly a matter of taste. In this tutorial we explain how to setup a Drupal multi-hosted site. The domain example.com will have the application files under /var/www/example.com, a SSL application root under /var/ssl/example.com and the Drupal uploaded files will be stored in private mode under /var/files/example.com. The latter directory will be created when we unpack and install Drupal. This is the reason why the following commands will not create this directory right now.
Create the http folders under /var/www and https folders under /var/ssl:
mkdir /var/www/html
mv /var/www/index.html /var/www/html/
mkdir -p /var/ssl/example.com
The /var/www/html folder will contain default web configuration. For example, if you access to the host using IP address, Apache will serve files contained in this directory.
The /var/ssl folder will contain sites for SSL connections.
At the bottom of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf include the following lines:
NameVirtualHost *:80 NameVirtualHost *:443 ServerName myserver.example.com
The default configuration file /etc/apache2/sites-available/default:
vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
<VirtualHost *:80>

</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
The example.com configuration file /etc/apache2/sites-available/example.com:
vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/example.com
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin [email protected] ServerName example.com ServerAlias www.example.com DirectoryIndex index.php DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/ <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory /var/www/example.com/> Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/example.com/cgi-bin/ <Directory "/var/www/example.com/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/example.com.error.log CustomLog /var/log/apache2/example.com.access.log combined LogLevel warn ServerSignature On </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost *:443> ServerAdmin [email protected] ServerName example.com ServerAlias www.example.com DirectoryIndex index.html DocumentRoot /var/ssl/example.com/ <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory /var/ssl/example.com/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/ssl/example.com/cgi-bin/ <Directory "/var/ssl/example.com/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/ssl.example.com.error.log CustomLog /var/log/apache2/ssl.example.com.access.log combined LogLevel warn ServerSignature On </VirtualHost>
Now we enable both sites and apply the configuration:
cd /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
ln –s ../sites-available/default 000-default
ln –s ../sites-available/example.com 001-example.com
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
