Sometimes you might want to alter H-Sphere so it creates some additional entries in Virtual Host config files for a particular plan. You might need it to integrate java hosting, or some 3rd party CGI. For this, you would have to edit the file common/domain/vhost.config

vhost.config is the file for virtual host configuration. It has a form of a template, like any other template used in H-Sphere. You should read the guide on template customization and create custom templates directory as well as make a copy of the file before you start modifing the file.

First of all, choose a paramter to separate one plan from another. To do that, go to Info->Plans, and click settings next to the plan. Set variable, like TOMCAT_SUPPORT 1. After that, open the vost.config template, and add:

<if account.plan.values.TOMCAT_SUPPORT == "1">
    ...
</if>

Within this IF clause, do whatever you got to do for that virtual host config. This way, only plans with that setting would have this entry.

There are 3 scripts that are used for domain, on domain creation, deletion, and when some alteration to the config is done. This is how they are called:

• On domain creation:
  apache-vhost
  apache-saveconf

• On domain removal:
  apache-delconf

• On update:
  apache-saveconf
