I can access to the web like: example.com but if I try www.example.com , it says: page not found or something like that. I’m building right now a multi site with apache virtual host and I can’t find how to do it in my new domain, any help? :)
Thanks
Also you need to create a DNS record to your (www) subdomain.
For intance: example.com is your domain (zone) and www.example.com is your subdomain such as api.example.com or w3.example.com, but the commonly used subdomain is www by convention.
Let’s say you have a A record in your DNS for your domain like this
@ A 192.168.0.1
People can reach your site just typing http://example.com in the URL bar of the browser. Now if you need to expose your site as http://www.example.com you can do this in several ways, these are two of them.
By adding a new A record in your DNS zone.
www A 192.168.0.1
By adding a CNAME record in your DNS zone.
www CNAME @
I would prefer the option 2 but it’s your choice.
Hope this helps you. :)
Add ServerAlias www.example.com to your virtual host file to listen on www.
For example:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@example.com
ServerName example.com
ServerAlias www.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/public_html
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
