I have Apache installed on a Debian Stretch system. I have no sites enabled but for some reason the /var/www/html/index.html still renders if I go to http://hostname.
Loaded sites:
root@hostname:/etc/apache2# a2query -s
No site matches (disabled by site administrator)
The access logs are going to /var/log/apache2/other_vhosts_access.log which is set in /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/other-vhosts-access-log.conf -> ../conf-available/other-vhosts-access-log.conf:
root@hostname:/etc/apache2/conf-enabled# more other-vhosts-access-log.conf
# Define an access log for VirtualHosts that don't define their own logfile
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/other_vhosts_access.log vhost_combined
# vim: syntax=apache ts=4 sw=4 sts=4 sr noet
How can I find what setting is doing this? I want to disable that VirtualHost so, for now, no page is loaded/rendered.
There is a default virtual host when Apache is configured. You can disable it by creating a virtual host with a domain name that you want to disable. In the configuration you can tell Apache to return 404 to every request for example.
