I have installed LAMP server and set up website to get resolve the appropriate IP address so when I connect to a server with it’s domain name with an IP address in address bar. It looks like this; /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin ...
ServerName mydomainname.irrelevant.to.the.question
DocumentRoot /var/www
...
I think that was invented fix that behavior because I also recheck the 3xx redirect path. Path Redirect/RedirectMatch/RewriteRule directives . But in the php application apache won’t misbehave this kind of redirection with their tag Redirect or RewriteRule as I mentioned in the configure file. What else is required?

Hi @jacobmillia,
It seems you are using the default Vhost, you need to create a new one for your domain name.
Here is how you can do it
Create a sites-enabled directory
You need to create a sites-enabled directory in your apache’s folder. Depending on the OS it can be either /etc/httpd or /etc/apache2
If you are on CentOS 7 you need to do the following
If you are on an Ubuntu, you need to
As soon as you have the folder created open your apache configuration file and add the following to the end of the file :
Creating your Domain’s Vhost file
Start by opening the new file in your editor with root privileges:
For CentOS
For Ubuntu
The file itself should look something like this
Enable the New Vhost
Now that we have created our virtual host file, we need to enable it so that Apache knows to serve them to visitors.
If you are on CentOS, you need to do
If you are on Ubuntu, you need to
As soon as you are done, restart Apache and you should be good to go
