I've got some headache trying to configure that for some days so I hope someone can help me.
I've got few sites, each one related to an FTP account. I would like to make them accessible through my man website by the url http://www.mainsite.com/site1. At this point an Alias should do the work.
However I would like to add some features such as specify the log file related to the site1 which would be in the web directory of the FTP account site1. Later, I would like to put them in /var/log and have a script to sync the log file located in the web directory with the one in /var/log so that even if a user delete the log file in the web directory, the original one is still here.
To go back to the main problem, I don't know how to do that, I tried to configure a whole vhost for the site1 but then, as the ServerName would be the same as the main site, the main site would no longer be accessible.
Any suggestions ?

You could try the ancient ServerPath directive, which will cause /site1 to be mapped to one vhost and /site2 to be mapped to another, despite having matching servername and local interface:port.

Please I need help with accessing my html/php file with localhost on my browser,i turn my xampp on and tried to access my html/php file,but it is still not working
That's what I keep getting everytime
The path component of the URL to your file starts at the directory specified in the DocumentRoot configuration option for your Apache HTTPD server. This probably defaults to the htdocs directory.
It doesn't start at the root of your filesystem. Web servers do not, by default, expose every file on your hard disk to the network (which would be a scary default for security reasons).
Normally you don't have to enter xampp/htdocs in the link. localhost is reffering to your xampp htdocs folder "automatically". Try localhost/phpinvscode
If you put your index.html file in the htdocs folder directly you would only need to enter localhost in the browser.

I have a dockerized web application deployed, and everything works just fine, logging every request, including a HUGE number of health checks, which are configured to hit the page /health, a blank page.
I think it's a common problem, and I found this question for a different stack (Elastic Beanstalk).
I'd like to have a solution that is completely automatic and possibly in the Dockerfile
First of all, I need an additional configuration file for Apache, let's call it apacheLogFilter.conf.
The content will be pretty easy, but it could be customized as much as we want, defining custom rules. The trick is defining a custom environment variable that, if present, will stop the logging for that request
SetEnvIf Request_URI "^/health$" dontlog
Once defined this new configuration, we need to plug it into apache directly in the Dockerfile, adding the following rows:
FROM php:7.2-apache
...
# Copy the log-filtering configuration in the right place
COPY apacheLogFilter.conf /etc/apache2/conf-enabled
# Change the standard logging entry of all the available sites to use the variable
RUN sed -ri -e 's!combined!combined env=\!dontlog!g' /etc/apache2/sites-available/*.conf
...
In this way, the configuration file will be loaded by apache at startup, each request will check the rules defined, and in case one of them will trigger, the request will not be logged

I have multiple domains going to the same IP / server (I do shared hosting of multiple domains on my own server). I would like :
http://domain1.com/* => /var/www/domain1/*
http://domain2.com/* => /var/www/domain2/*
Up to now I do it with PHP : all requests are sent to a single PHP file that does the redistribution :
if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], 'domain1') !== false)
// call the file in /var/www/domain1/*
if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], 'domain2') !== false)
// call the file in /var/www/domain2/*
I can imagine that there exists a "cleaner" solution without PHP, but just .htaccess ?
What is the best pratice for having multiple domains going to the same server? How should I route the requests from multiple domains to the right directory of the server?
Note : I found this but as there is only 1 upvote, I'm not sure if this is really relevant.
You can use VirtualHosts to route certain sites to directories.
Here's the general configuration I use (in httpd.conf - there's loads of other info here):
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mydomain.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/mydomain.example.com
</VirtualHost>
You can also place these directives in different files in /etc/apache2/sites-available/<name>.conf and then do a2ensite <name>, if you're on a system that supports that (Debian/Ubuntu IIRC).

How to add custom variable name with apache logs so that I can add my project name with my error logs in beginning, it is helpful for recognizing error logs with project name. I have lot of projects in my organization and project can be build in any language, I want to track all logs on a one place, but issue is that which errors are coming from which projects, i am unable to get it, so I want to add project name with logs. please suggest me, if any documentation is there, so i can manipulate apache then share with me.
Apache Access Log is using a log format defined by LogFormat directive.
This format can contain a lot of things. One of theses things is %{VARNAME}e : The contents of the environment variable VARNAME. So using SetEnv on your application VirtualHosts you could manage your goals.
But this does not work for ErrorLog. If you manage applications with Virtualhosts you should use separate ErrorLog files on theses Virtualhosts.

I have few sites, and they all have identical setup on a single server. Now, instead of the separate configuration file for each of them in sites-enabled directory, I want to have a common file.
Idea is this:
www.abc.com should have /var/www/abc as DocumentRoot,
www.xyz.com should have /var/www/xyz as DocumentRoot, etc.
All other parameteres like log files, contact emails etc should also have identical setup (abc.com should have contact#abc.com as admin email, xyz.com should have contact#xyz.com as admin email etc).
I couldnt find any tutorial on how to backreference wildcards, etc.
regards,
JP
Aha. Found the solution. VirtualDocumentRoot is the answer.
A single line like:
VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/%0
does the job. Havent really figured the logs stuff but should be similar and easy.
See https://serverfault.com/questions/182929/wildcard-subdomain-directory-names for a nice related thread.
You gotta enable vhost_alias module for this. (sudo a2enmod vhost_alias on ubuntu).
