In this tutorial, we demonstrate how to create a subdomain in Apache Web Server.

# vim /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default

Just adding this VirtualHost will do:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName subdomain.domain.com DocumentRoot /var/www/subdomain </VirtualHost> |
Now create /var/www/subdomain
# mkdir -p /var/www/subdomain
|
And put your subdomain files here.
Now Restart Apache
# service apache2 restart
|
Test it.
Go to a browser and hit subdomain.domain.com
