How to create virtual host with wildcard in apache server using ubuntu

1.) Start by copying the file for the first domain:- 







sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/demo.com.conf




2.) Open the new file in your editor with root privileges

sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/demo.com.conf

3.) Remove the all constant from the file and replace the below text

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin demo@example.com
    ServerName demo.com
    ServerAlias www.demo.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/php-work/wordpress
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost> 

4.) We can use the a2ensite tool to enable each of our sites like this

sudo a2ensite demo.com.conf

5.) Set the local host and restart server

sudo nano /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1 demo.com




sudo service apache2 restart 

for wildcard setup
1.) sudo apt-get install dnsmasq
2.) sudo service network-manager restart
3.) sudo gedit dnsmasq.conf
4.) include the line #address=/demo.com/127.0.0.1
5.)  sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart
