I want to have multiple domains on my apache2.2 local server on Linux. I have edited the httpd.conf and inserted these codes after going through various posts on the internet.

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName localhost
   DocumentRoot /home/jharvard/vhosts/localhost
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName ratnesh
   DocumentRoot /home/jharvard/vhosts/ratnesh
</VirtualHost>

the html folder is inside the 'localhost' and 'ratnesh' folders for each case. Then I edited the /etc/hosts files as follows:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
127.0.0.1 ratnesh ratnesh.localdomain
127.0.0.1 appliance appliance.localdomain

Then I restarted the apache service. But of no help. When i try to visit localhost I am getting 403 FORBIDDEN error. And for visiting the ratnesh domain, it directs me to the google search. Furthermore, when i am removing the edited code (written above) from the 'httpd.conf' the localhost works fine but ratnesh doesn't. Stuck on this problem for a week and am really frustrated now.

Hope you'll help. Thanks.

Regards,

Ratnesh

think the server wide directives deny access to all directories so you need to specifies these directories to give them access , note ive added your html directory to DocumentRoot.

 <VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName localhost
   DocumentRoot /home/jharvard/vhosts/localhost/html

    <Directory "/home/jharvard/vhosts/localhost/html">
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None

        # Controls who can get stuff from this server.
        Require all granted

    </Directory>

    <IfModule dir_module>
        DirectoryIndex  index.php index.html index.htm
    </IfModule>

 </VirtualHost>
