Good day everyone!

Despite having been using TKL for nearly a decade now, this is my first foray into trying to host multiple websites using the LAMP appliance. The first website works fine. The second...not so much.

I got the first one working by putting my content into /var/www and just let the default site be the default. It works perfectly.

I tried adding a second one using the Webmin GUI, but wasn't terribly successful. So, I copy/pasted the 000-default.conf to be server2.example.com, changing the path to be /var/www/server2.example.com, within which is a valid path and has a simple index.html file in it. Webmin shows the new addition, but the second site doesn't show its index page, even with a host file on a LAN. Instead, it shows the default site.

Here are the two .conf files:

000-default.conf: https://pastebin.com/NphZJHmi

server2.example.com: https://pastebin.com/saP1WUaB

I am 99% sure I have made no manual changes to apache2.conf, but it is available upon request if needed.

Thank you for the assistance and consideration!

Thanks Bill!

 

a2ensite server2.example.com

service apache2 reload

Those commands are exactly what I needed to do!

FWIW my site.conf file looks like this (I keep my html files inside the site.com/htdocs directory, old habit I guess:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName site.com
    ServerAlias www.site.com
    ServerAdmin webmaster@site.com

    DocumentRoot /var/www/site.com/htdocs

    <Directory />
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

    <Directory /var/www/site.com/htdocs>
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        allow from all
    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>
