Using a directory in VirtualHost ServerName

Question

I'm currently using name-based virtual host configuration, to server about 5 different websites from the same IP address, just like in the apache documentation:

<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.domain.tld DocumentRoot /www/domain </VirtualHost>  <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.otherdomain.tld DocumentRoot /www/otherdomain </VirtualHost> 

Is it possbile to have something like:

<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.domain.tld/folderpath DocumentRoot /www/software </VirtualHost> 

The webpages in this folder are using a different software stack, and I'd like to keep it nicely separate. I tried the method above but it didn't work.

Answer 1

It's not possible the way you show - a VirtualHost is always just a host. But you could use an Alias.

<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.domain.tld DocumentRoot /www/domain  Alias /folderpath /www/software  </VirtualHost> 

Answer 2

Is it possible to have a different vhost for each application like that:

<VirtualHost *:80>  ServerName www.domain.tld  DocumentRoot /www/domain  </VirtualHost>    <VirtualHost *:80>  ServerName www.domain.tld  Alias otherApp /www/otherApp  </VirtualHost>
