Edit Apache directives for a virtual host

Hello,

What are you specifically needing to change? Depending on what is needing changed, it might need to be done differently. If you are adding individual VirtualHost directives, those need to go into an include file for the user. If you are modifying existing VirtualHost directives, you'd have to edit the userdata file for the user.

If you are editing global directives, you'd have to edit the Apache template file by copying it and making changes. If you are adding global directives, you'd need to add them into one of the global include files.

You can review the various include locations in the following documentation:

The Apache Web Server and cPanel & WHM

Thanks.

 

Hello Milindra,

Would there be a reason you do not simply add a wildcard subdomain onto the account in cPanel or park a wildcard onto cPanel? You can certainly edit the VirtualHost directive, but it seems like that's overkill when it should be something you can add in cPanel > Subdomains or cPanel > Parked Domains area.

To edit the ServerAlias lines, you simply need to edit /var/cpanel/userdata/username/mydomain.co.uk file and add the wildcard in the serveralias: line it will have. Replace username with the cPanel username in that path, and replace mydomain.co.uk with the actual domain name.

You'd also have to add a parked domain entry in /var/cpanel/userdata/username/mydomain.co.uk/mail file.

Thanks.
