New page

When you install or use the default-installed apache on ubuntu, things can be a bit all-over-the-place. This page is intended to collect my notes on where everything is when you go this route.

=Overview=

==htdocs==

The main Apache site is located in <code>/www/htdocs</code>

I put things in <code>/www/</code> if they need to be accessed by Apache (MediaWiki, Wordpress, Drupal, etc.)

==Configuration Files==

Normally, Apache is configured through the httpd.conf file. However, on Ubuntu, configuration files are more fragmented.

The main configuration file is located in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf. This contains the system's Apache configuration, and should probably not be modified directly.

The main configuration file pulls in other configuration files, such as /etc/apache2/ports.conf, which contains configuration directives related to which ports Apache uses.

There are also site-specific configuration files, detailed below.

==Sites==

Site settings contained in: <code>/etc/apache2/sites-available/default</code>

Site settings for sites currently running contained in: <code>/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*</code>

The contents of the server's main website are contained in: <code>/www/htdocs/</code>

To add a new site, you'll need to add a new virtual host, by creating a new file in <code>/etc/apache2/sites-available/newsite</code>. It will contain a <code><VirtualHost></code> block that will indicate how to reach the new site and the directory containing the contents of the new site.

To enable the new virtual host, run:

<pre>
sudo a2ensite newsite
</pre>

To disable it, run:

<pre>
sudo a2dissite newsite
</pre>
