How to add virtual hosts to be upgrade safe??

[jim.thornton]

I'm looking at installing BaiKal into my DA server. I've followed their directions so far, but I'm now at the following:

In our example, we will assume that the apache2 configuration directory is: `/etc/apache2`

```sh
# a. Enter the Apache2 configuration directory
$ root:/var/www> cd /etc/apache2

# b. Enter the sites-available directory
$ root:/etc/apache2> cd sites-available

# c. Symlink the Baikal virtualhost file to this directory
$ root:/etc/apache2/sites-available> ln -s /var/www/dav.mydomain.com/Specific/virtualhosts/baikal.apache2

# d. Customize the virtualhost config file
$ root:/etc/apache2/sites-available> nano baikal.apache2

# e. In baikal.apache2, replace references to dav.mydomain.com with your own domain name

# f. Activate the new virtualhost
$ root:/etc/apache2/sites-available> cd ../sites-enabled
$ root:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled> ln -s ../sites-available/baikal.apache2

# h. Restart apache
$ root:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled> /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Now, there obviously isn't sites-available directory with the CentOS 6.3 & DA setup. So, I'm curious if adding this vhost is as simple as creating a symlink to the /var/www/html/baikal directory with the vhost file? Or, is there a better way of doing it??

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was able to figure out what I needed to do.

Once I get this working I will submit a thread to make as a guide on installing Baikal. I've got it installed and working but am trying to get it working with iphone now.

Hello,


According to this https://github.com/jeromeschneider/Baikal/blob/master/Specific/virtualhosts/baikal.apache2 you need a standart (in terms of Directadmin) virtual host with 2 lines of mod_rewrite rules:

RewriteRule /.well-known/carddav /card.php [R,L] RewriteRule /.well-known/caldav /cal.php [R,L] either added at admin level as custom code for httpd, or in .htaccess file.

I had those rewrite rules in the httpd virtualhost but it still wasn't working.

I've installed OwnCloud at the server level instead and it is working perfectly.
