Hello,

I'm trying to configure domains to point to each respective folder on server. I heard this can be done by configuring virtual host file. But I can't find it on CentOS 6. Can someone tell me where it is please?

Regards, Bogomil

httpd.conf is under /etc/httpd/conf.
You may also look at /etc/httpd/conf.d/ for other configuration files

Regards

There is nothing there. Inside httpd there is only Alias folder.

How did you install apache?
If you used Centos default httpd package(s), everything related to apache should be under /etc/httpd

Via Add/Remove Software

Can you post output of:

There is no sudo command in CentOS 6, I tried to search for it by using grep command, it just hangs, searched indefinitely.

So, you login as root to do all admin tasks? Or, perhaps ask the admin of the machine in question...

sudo is located in /usr/bin but not enabled by default. /usr/bin is also in a users path environment and sudo should of been installed by default.

You can run the posted commands successfully as a regular user or use su.


Here is a howto guide.

Apache is the httpd package.

What does "rpm -qa httpd" show?

What does "yum list httpd" show installed?

If not installed you can use "yum install httpd" to install it.

P.S.
sudo certainly exists on RHEL and CentOS but unlike other distros it isn't the default way of running admin commands. One logs in as root and runs them. sudo's purpose is to grant access to other non-admins to run specified commands as root. One can setup sudo to switch users (e.g. "sudo su -" to become root) and there is a default sudoers file.

Apache is installed. I'm the admin. Although new to Linux. Look, look, look.... sudo command really works! But on my last installation it didn't. I'm still learning this thing. dc.901 thanks a lot. Seems the httpd.conf is hidden in /usr/local/apache/conf folder. Should I edit it manually or through Centos Web Panel?

Now I have problems creating a file in that folder. Ftp doesn't want to create a file.
If I set up domain in Centos web panel and define Path seems no effect. To point domain to right folder the only way is through changing the httpd.conf file. Now how do I enable write permissions in the folder on server? To create a test index.html file.

Ftp permissions problem fixed. But can not solve the problem with right domain pointing. I'll create a new question.

Apache may be installed but apparently not using the CentOS repositories. /usr/local is where things go when you roll your own (e.g. download, configure and make). It is NOT the default location for the rpm provided by RHEL/CentOS. The usual location is /etc/httpd as posted by someone else.

I notice you didn't bother to answer the questions asked but rather want us to accept that you know what you're doing despite the fact you came here asking how to find a file.

As I come from Windows environment I like GUI and installed CentOS 6 with GNOME. Then I installed Apache via System/Add Remove Software. I installed Services GUI. Httpd service is up and running. After running that sudo find command, I found httpd.conf file in the /usr/local/apache/conf folder. Default folder /etc/httpd is empty! I installed CentOS Web Panel. Configured DNS, FTP, emails...

In my case I have localhost pointing to /home/bogomil/public_html folder. You can check 168.235.88.193 and domain waiguolaoshi.club for example. If you type waiguolaoshi.club/index.html it will show result. But waiguolaoshi.club will redirect to public_html localhost folder not to /home/bogomil/publich_html/waiguolaoshi folder.
