This answer is not correct. “sites-available” is a Debian thing, not a CentOS thing.

If you follow this steps you have to edit YOUR_DOMAIN.conf file which is located /etc/httpd/sites-available/YOUR_DOMAIN.conf
TODO:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/sites-available/YOUR_DOMAIN.conf

add this codes end of the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName SUB_DOMAIN.YOUR_DOMAIN
    ServerAlias YOUR_DOMAIN
    DocumentRoot /YOUR/SUB/DOMAIN/PATH
    ErrorLog /YOUR/ERROR/LOG/PATH
    CustomLog /YOUR/REQUESTED/LOG/PATH combined
</VirtualHost>

Restart apache:

sudo apachectl restart

    The above process is correct ,But you have to follow 3 more steps

    1- before restarting the apache be sure that the document root directory is present.
    2- Create a new host record in /etc/hosts with the sub domain name
    3- create a CNAME record in your DNS zone

Hi There.
In My case, just change “sites-available” with “conf.d” and follow with your_domain.conf
