I have a single web site deployed to my Digital Ocean droplet. The droplet has its own domain name, https connection and certificate. I would like to add 2 more web sites to this domain, but I cannot get the server to run them. I tried using domain-name.dom/directory-of-2nd-site/index.html but no luck. Just a 404 message.
What do I need to do / what do I need to research?

Hi @dcolhoun57,
First, I’ll recommend creating the other two websites on a subdomain rather add multiple websites under one domain.
Having said that, can you let me know what WebService you are using? Is it Nginx or Apache and can you show me the configuration you have for your domain?
If you are not sure if you are using Apache or Nginx, you can find out by typing the following :
nestat -tulpen
See on port 80 and 443, what does it say it run on it?
Anyway, if it’s Apache you can find the configuration of your domain in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled. If it’s Nginx, you can find the configuration in : /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
