<br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;">Depends on the Distro. If you are using CentOS or any RHEL alternative, then typically you place the site conf files in:</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"> /etc/httpd/conf.d/</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"> </div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;">The following line should already be in the httpd.conf file provided by Apache it may just need to be un-commented:</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"> Include conf.d/*.conf </div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;">FYI site configuration files placed in the conf.d directory are given run priority by lower numbered files first. For example 10-example.site2.conf would be run before 20-example.site1.conf.</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;">If you don't want to use the conf.d/ directory then you could create a directory like /etc/httpd/conf/vhost/ and place your .conf files in there. You would then simply add an includes file like so in httpd.conf:</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"> Include conf/vhost/*.conf</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;">If you are running Apache in a Debian or Ubuntu based distro than all site conf files go in /etc/apache2/sites-available/. Apache2 in Debian and Ubuntu require that new sites are enabled. to do this after creating your site's .conf file run:</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"> sudo a2ensite your-site-name.conf (this is the same name you gave the conf file in /etc/apache2/sites-available)</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;">Also in Debian/Ubuntu you need to ensure that the mod_rewrite module is enabled. To do this you type just once.</div>
<div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv8254385399gmail_default" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#0b5394;"> sudo a2enmod rewrite</div>
