My virtual hosts are configured as below, initally I could not even get to the /public_html/ directory when typing example.com and apache would just serve me up the default welcome page, I would also get the error: Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/example.com/public_html/ in the log . After editing the welcome.conf page (- Index) so it does not show again when I now type example.com the/public_html/ contents (Index.php) are indexed in the browser. Where as I want it to actually execute and diplay the index.php page.

vhost.conf , located in etc/httpd/vhost.d/

NameVirtualHost *:80

    <VirtualHost *:80>
         ServerAdmin [email protected]
         ServerName localhost
         ServerAlias localhost.example.com
         DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example.com/public_html/
         ErrorLog /var/www/html/example.com/logs/error.log
         CustomLog /var/www/html/example.com/logs/access.log combined
    </VirtualHost>

    <VirtualHost *:80>
         ServerAdmin [email protected]
         ServerName example.org
         ServerAlias www.example.org
         DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example.org/public_html/
         ErrorLog /var/www/html/example.org/logs/error.log
         CustomLog /var/www/html/example.org/logs/access.log combined
    </VirtualHost>

httpd.conf, settings on default, added onto end:

Include /etc/httpd/vhosts.d/*.conf

Root directories:

DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
