Virtual Hosting allows Apache Weberver to serve different content based on IP Address, hostname or used port number.

In this tutorial we will see name based virtual hosting.

This tutorial assumes you have installed Apache httpd server.

1. To create virtual host do the following:-

vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost.conf

2. Add the below code in the file:-

# create new
# for original domain
<VirtualHost *:80>
 DocumentRoot /var/www/html
 ServerName sarfaraz.test.com # <= Your system hostname
</VirtualHost>

3. Add the virtual host entry next to it 

<VirtualHost *:80>
 DocumentRoot /home/sarfaraz/public_html/virtual #Change to your path
 ServerName www.virtual.host
 ServerAdmin root@virtual.host
 ErrorLog /var/log/virtual.host-error_log
 CustomLog /var/log/virtual.host-access_log combined
</VirtualHost>

4. After this create a directory with name virtual:-

# mkdir /home/sarfaraz/public_html/virtual

# chmod -R 755 /home/sarfaraz/public_html/virtual

5. Now we need to create logs file which we mentioned above:-

# vim /var/log/virtual.host-error_log

# vim /var/log/virtual.host-access_log


Change the permission of the log files:-

# chmod 644 /var/log/virtual.host-error_log

# chmod 644 /var/log/virtual.host-access_log

6. Add the virtual host entry in /etc/hosts file:-

# vim /etc/hosts

#Add the host entry at the bottom

192.168.15.47 www.virtual.host

7. Now create the file inside your DocumentRoot :-

# Please add the below code if you have installed php or you can add any text 


<?php
 phpinfo();
?>

8. Now lets access it from the browser:-

9. Now lets check the log files:-
