404 error – apache updated, but still does not work/

Posted September 30, 2019
Apache DigitalOcean

Hello, my name is Anna, nice to meet you all!

I installed apache on my droplet, so I could see my web page, but it doesn’t work. I always have 404 error. So I changed apache2 config like that: <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all denied </Directory>

<Directory /usr/share> AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory>

<Directory /var/www/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory>

#<Directory /srv/>

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

AllowOverride All

Require all granted

#</Directory>

And it didn’t help at all:) My IP’s 159.65.252.195, do you guys have any idea how to fix this?

Thanks a lot!

PS I’m just learning, so I’m sorry if my question is stupid.

Hello there,

Everyone can check our series of tutorials under the How To Set Up Apache Virtual Hosts

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorial_collections/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts

Keep in mind that you’ll need to reload/restart Apache after making the changes.

Hope that this helps!

Hi @anutkyns,

You’ll need a separate configuration file for the domain you wish to use.

I’ll recommend you to check the following Digital Oceaon’s article - HERE

Once you’ve followed through, you’ll have a pretty good base of knowledge to work with Apache.

Kind regards, Kalin
