I have RedHat 8 server with Apache/2.4.37 running on it and we're hosting 4 vhost simple websites. I'd like to disable 2 of those 4 website while keep the other websites running.

I tried many things but nothing works really.. If i shutdown httpd service, of course will take all 4 websites down. I cannot find this command "a2dissite" anywhere on my system (I guess due to the old Apache version i have) Any help would be greatly appreciated

On RHEL8 check /etc/httpd/conf.d/ for .conf files, that contain the config for the two websites. Rename the files for the sites you want to disable and reload the apache service.

I think i was able to disable the specific website by editing httpd.conf and use the following:

IncludeOptional conf.d/vhosts/websitename.conf

The a2dissite and a2ensite commands just change your /etc/apache2/sites-enabled directory.

Delete the symlinks in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled for the vhosts you want to disable and restart Apache.

To recover, create symlinks from the vhost configuration files in /etc/apache2/sites-available to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled and restart.

    This doesn't work on Red Hat.

    How about /etc/httpd?
