Wildcard Virtual hosting.

anishkumarv · 09-17-2012, 01:00 PM

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.anishunix.com
ServerAlias anishunix
DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/anishunix"
<Directory "/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/anishunix">
DirectoryIndex index.jsp index.html
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
JkMount /anishunix* worker1
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/anishunix/.*\.(jpe?g|gif|png|css|js)
RewriteRule ^/$  http://www.anishunix.com/anishunix/ [R=302,L]
</VirtualHost>

This is my main domain virtual host configuration entry.

my requirement is going to host nearly 50 sub domains under this main domain. so i thought wildcard virtual hosting is good idea. please guide me to solve this thread.

main domain document root is /usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/anishunix

and the remaining 50 domains document root is /usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/anishunix/subdomains/

the same path for all subdomains.

please guide me to solve this thread. Thanks in Advance.

With Regards

Add this line before your main domain

################# Named VirtualHosts
NameVirtualHost *:80

After your main domain add these lines for each virtual domain

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.domain.tld
ServerPath /domain
DocumentRoot /web/domain
</VirtualHost>

repeat for each virtual domain.

after saving your httpd.conf file be sure to restart your web server. If you made any mistakes the server will refuse to start. Note it will tell you where the mistake is in the httpd.conf file.

OK so you are talking about something like this

NameVirtualHost 10.10.0.205

<VirtualHost 10.10.0.205>
ServerAlias *.test
VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/%-3.0.%-2/test/%1/
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log vhost_combined
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 10.10.0.205>
ServerAlias *.dev
VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/%-3.0.%-2/dev/%1/
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log vhost_combined
</VirtualHost>
