I have a website say www.example.com I redirected and changed my nameservers to point to digitalocean servers I have. Unfortunately the website is redirecting by default to /var/www and showing index.html content. Instead I want to redirect the example.com to /var/www/example folder
What should I do?

Hello aguilar, We have setup virtual hosts properly. But the problem we are facing is something like this.
Eg: I have two websites www.example1.com and www.example2.com
When I set up my website, example1 it works fine and its content shows up. But when I setup example2 with its content. Even example1 starts showing the content of example2.
When I check their paths in the etc/sitesavailable, It has correctly different paths.
For example1 its /var/www/example1/public_html For example2 its /var/www/example2/public_html
Even though the paths are setup differently the contents of example1 gets overwrite with the contents of example2
Kindly help us out. Don’t you guys have a live support?
