How can I create subdomains on Amazon EC2?
Is adding virtual host in httpd.conf is enough.. or any other changes also needs to be done?
Thanks
Depends on your server software. But as you mention httpd.conf, chances are good that you run Apache on a Linux distribution. If that's the case then yes, adding a virtual host is enough. Here is one way of doing it:
Create a DNS record for your domain, for instance a CNAME record to point to your Elastic IP/DNS name:
subdomain.example.com => ec2-xx-xxx-xxx-xxx.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com
Make sure your httpd.conf contains a line to allow virtual hosts:
NameVirtualHost *:80
Create a virtual host directive:
httpd.conf:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName subdomain.example.com
ServerAdmin webmaster@subdomain.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/subdomain
<Directory /var/www/example.com/subdomain>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/subdomain.example.com.error.log
LogLevel warn
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/subdomain.example.com.access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
6. Restart Apache
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
