How to obtain a directory name consisting of two last parts of the domain name. Or use a dot?
For example, I have a domain any.ms and I would like the dynamic domains foo.any.ms and domain bar.any.ms also pointing to the /var/www/dev/any.ms/public directory. Or domain any.lorem.ipsum.ms to point to the directory /var/www/dev/ipsum.ms/public.
My ms.conf for now (not working, apache won't start):
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAlias *.ms
VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/dev/%-2%.%-1/public
UseCanonicalName Off
<Directory "/var/www/dev">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I use the documentation http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_vhost_alias.html but I can not insert dots writing /%-2.%-1/, /%-2%.%-1/, /%-2\.%-1/.
I have just found a solution:
If you want to include the . (dot) character in a VirtualDocumentRoot directive, but it crashes with a % directive, you can work around the problem in the following way:
VirtualDocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/vhosts/%2.0.%3.0
Working solution:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAlias *.ms
VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/dev/%-2.0.%-1.0/public
UseCanonicalName Off
<Directory "/var/www/dev">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
