Could I host different projects with different languages on the same droplet using different routes of the same domain?

Question

That’s what I was trying to do (using Apache 16)
I have two enabled config files.

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin admin@something.com
    ServerName mydomain.com/project_1
    ServerAlias www.mydomain.com/project_1
    DocumentRoot /var/www/project1/public_html
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

And the other one (for an entirely different project) would be:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin admin@something.com
    ServerName mydomain.com/project_2
    ServerAlias www.mydomain.com/project_2
    DocumentRoot /var/www/project2/public_html
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

I’ve tried it and it didn’t really work.

Do I need to change my domain droplet records to make it work? Because there’s no option for routes there..

I assume I did something stupid and that this question is very unprofessional, but still, I would love to get some help please :)

Hello friend!

Great question! What you would do here is use only one of these, and make it like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin admin@something.com
    ServerName mydomain.com
    ServerAlias www.mydomain.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Now create these two folders:
/var/www/project1
/var/www/project2

So traffic to mydomain.com/project1 or www.mydomain.com/project1 loads the contents of /var/www/project1, and so on for each project you need :)

Kind Regards,
Jarland

Hi Jarland,
This should probably work but it has created a new problem, my routers in one of the projects stopped working..

That’s the project: http://www.itayperry.com/school/login
I tried adding the word “/school” to each route, but it doesn’t work.
You can watch the code on GitHub: https://github.com/itayperry/School-Project
All the routes are in routes.php

That’s the second project: http://www.itayperry.com/playlists/
It seems to be working perfectly but it is built with no routes in the first place, so that’s one good thing.

I would love for your help!
And thank you!
