: In apache, how to map site.example.com to example.com/site I'm sure there is documentation for how to do this, but I don't know what it's called so I don't even know how to start searching.

I'm sure there is documentation for how to do this, but I don't know what it's called so I don't even know how to start searching.

On my webserver, example.com, i have a site called site. It's accessed by going to example.com/site.

I want it instead to be site.example.com.

Can someone point me to apache documentation to enable this?

I think you need to use virtual host. Edit the file called .../apache/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf and add this line:

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "[PATH-TO-APACHE]/Apache2.2/htdocs/tema"
ServerName site.example.com
</VirtualHost>

Of course you need also to enable virtual hosts on apache editing the httpd.conf file.

Are you sure you want to rewrite or redirect people from the subfolder to a subdomain? Why not create a virtual host / subdomain then do 301 from the old subfolder to the subdomain?

This is a good tutorial on creating subdomains
