I have a site www.mysite.com (hosting in ubuntu 16) and I would like to make mail.mysite.com as the subdomain to access my roundcube webmail. The problem is whenever I tried to access the mail.mysite.com, it will redirect to www.mysite.com automatically. I tried to refer to to other similar questions here but it's still unsolved.
Here is my file settings
/etc/hosts
| Code: |
127.0.0.1 localhost mail.localhost
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
In the /etc/apache2/sites-available, i have mysite.com.conf, mysite.com-ssl.conf and mail.mysite.com.conf |
mail.mysite.com.conf
| Code: | <VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mail.mysite.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/roundcube
<Directory /var/www/roundcube>
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost> |
If you need to have the content of other files, please let me know.
Thank you for your help! |

I doubt this is the problem but you are using 2.4 obviously and only need the "Require all granted" line.
The Order/allow/deny/satisfy is the old pre-2.4 syntax.
What probably is the problem is the first vhost must be a copy of the main host (www.). Which is in apache2.conf (I think).
Usually this is enough to get vhosts working.
| Code: | <VirtualHost _default_:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/wherever-the-main-site-is
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mail.mysite.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/roundcube
