How to setup multiple sites on one droplet with Laravel Forge?

Posted on June 26, 2020

I already have a digital droplet created and using it on another site. I am using laravel forge.

I would like to add another site to the same droplet. Now I added the hostname the .com and www .com version to the droplet. However, when I visit the site ‘server IP could not be found’.

When creating the project, in digital ocean asks me if I would like to move the resource(droplet) over from the previous site to this new one. But if I do that would that would it affect the other site?

If anyone could provide some guidance that would be greatly appreciated.

Are you adding a new website/webapp?

Not sure how Forge handles this, but the normal procedure is to add a new virtual host if you are using Apache. (/etc/apache/sites-available)

Don’t have to mess with the droplet.

thanks @VIMaster that issue is now resolved. I created the file as you mentioned. Still getting the 404 though. I reached out to support hoping they can provide more insight. Everything I’ve checked so far seems to be functioning correctly.
