The excerpts below show some example name-based VirtualHost configurations that can be used in Apache. For more detailed instructions, please see the official documentation.
For each TCP port that you want to use to serve content, you will need to define a Listen directive before configuring your VirtualHosts. When using Apache version 2.2.x or lower, each port will also need a NameVirtualHost directive.
# This tells Apache to listen on port 80 Listen 80 # This tells Apache to listen on port 443 (Only required when using SSL) Listen 443 # This tells Apache that you will be using name-based vhosts on port 80 # Note: Only required when using Apache version 2.2.x or lower NameVirtualHost *:80 |
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.foo.com # if you want this vhost to listen to extra names, uncomment the next line # ServerAlias foo.com www.bar.com bar.com DocumentRoot /var/www/www.foo.com/htdocs CustomLog /var/log/apache/www.foo.com-access.log combined ErrorLog /var/log/apache/www.foo.com-error.log </VirtualHost> |

Warning: If you want to run multiple SSL vhosts on a single IP, see this article.
