The .NET core API requires apache set up as reverse proxy.
How can I run both the web API and my other normal web site that doesn’t require any reverse proxy stuff.

×You need to use a different apache configuration file for each one of them.
I will assume that you have webapi.net DNS record for the .net core web API and laravel-app.com DNS record for the laravel application, here is an example config for each one of them.
The first one webapi.conf
Question
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName webapi.net
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/net_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/net_access.log combined
ProxyPassReverse "/" <url to net core api with / at the end>
</VirtualHost>
The second one laravel-app.conf
ServerName laravel-app.com
DocumentRoot (path to local laravel application)
<Directory (path to local laravel application)>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/laravel_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/laravel_access.log combined
Enable the two new sites
sudo a2ensite webapi.conf
sudo a2ensite laravel-app.com
sudo service apache2 restart
Now you can access the net core API with this url http://webapi.net and the laravel application with this url http://laravel-app.com.
one site is a .net core web API, which requires me to set up reverse proxy to run it.
my other site is a laravel web site.
I want to run both on same server. I know about using virtual hosts but what about where 1 is reverse proxy and other is not?
