VirtualHosts not working properly

rated 0 times [ 1] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 4954 / 3 Years ago, sun, may 23, 2021, 2:51:11

I am running Ubuntu Gnome 14.04, I apt-get installed apache2, php and mysql. From there, localhost was working fine, running from the /var/www/html/ directory.

I created a new file, /etc/apache2/sites-available/laravel.example.conf, and mimicked the 000-default.conf file that already existed in that folder:

<VirtualHost *:80>

    ServerName      laravel.example

    ServerAlias     www.laravel.example

    ServerAdmin [email protected]

    DocumentRoot /var/www/sites/laravel.example

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/laravel.example_error.log

    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/laravel.example_access.log combined

</VirtualHost>



# vim: syntax=apache ts=4 sw=4 sts=4 sr noet

I created the folder at /var/www/sites/laravel.example, added in 127.0.0.1 laravel.example to /etc/hosts, ran a2ensite laravel.example.conf, restarted apache, but still just get Web page not available when I try load it. Any ideas?

You need to set ownership / permissions of the directories and files to e readable by www-data

Personally I use:

sudo chown -R root:www-data /var/www

chmod 750 /var/www/sites

chmod 750 /var/www/sites/sites/laravel.example

chmod 640 /var/www/sites/sites/laravel.example/*
