How To Set Up Apache Virtual Hosts on Ubuntu:

Create the Directory Structure

sudo mkdir -p /var/www/yourdomin.com/html

Grant Permissions

sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /var/www/yourdomin.com/html

sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www

Create Demo Pages for Each Virtual Host

sudo nano /var/www/yourdomin.com/html/index.html

Create New Virtual Host Files

sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/yourdomin.com.conf

Open the new file in your editor with root privileges

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/yourdomin.com.conf

Enable the New Virtual Host Files:

We can use the a2ensite tool to enable each of our sites like this

sudo a2ensite yourdomin.com.conf

Next, disable the default site defined in 000-default.conf

sudo a2dissite 000-default.conf

In other documentation, you may also see an example using the service command

sudo service apache2 restart

When you are finished, you need to restart Apache to make these changes take effect

sudo systemctl restart apache2
