From Deep Thought

You will need shell/root access to do this trickery. Also, every server is different which means your mileage may vary.

Apache 1.x

Typical configuration file is at /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Error Logging

• Default for systemwide logs: /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log

To change this on a server with virtual sites (one machine, multiple domains hosted).

Use your favorite editor (vi anyone?) and change this:

<VirtualHost 72.52.158.193>
   ServerAlias www.penelopepeapod.com
   ServerAdmin webmaster@penelopepeapod.com
   DocumentRoot /home/penelope/public_html
   User penelope
   Group penelope
   ServerName penelopepeapod.com

   User penelope
   Group penelope
   BytesLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/penelopepeapod.com-bytes_log
   CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/penelopepeapod.com combined
   ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/penelope/public_html/cgi-bin/
</VirtualHost>

To this:

<VirtualHost 72.52.158.193>
   ServerAlias www.penelopepeapod.com
   ServerAdmin webmaster@penelopepeapod.com
   DocumentRoot /home/penelope/public_html
   User penelope
   Group penelope
   ServerName penelopepeapod.com

   User penelope
   Group penelope
   BytesLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/penelopepeapod.com-bytes_log
   CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/penelopepeapod.com combined
   ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/penelope/public_html/cgi-bin/
   ErrorLog /usr/local/apache/logs/penelopepeapod.com-error_log
</VirtualHost>

Then restart your server:

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
