Virtual Domains - Additional Items

(Page 3 of 4 )

Now lets add some other necessary items. Most of these are self explanatory.

ServerAdmin you@yoursite.com     ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/yoursite-error_log     TransferLog /var/log/httpd/yoursite-access_log

Now if you want to have an executable directory for cgi/perl scripts you need to make a directory in your document root for your scripts to be placed I always use cgi-bin

Here is what you need in your virtual hosts file for an executable directory

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/sites/yoursite/cgi-bin/

If you want to password protect files with .htaccess you need the following lines.

<Directory "/var/www/sites/yoursite">     Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks     AllowOverride All     Order allow,deny     Allow from all </Directory>

This is always cool to have your own custom 404 error file you can also specify this in your virtual.

ErrorDocument 404 /var/www/sites/yoursite/notfound.html
