Configuration for Alias By default, Apache HTTP Server configuration file is / etc/httpd/conf/httpd. conf and Alias is controlled by alias_module . To access those directories or files located in other places rather than under DocumentRoot , we need to use Alias .

The Alias and ScriptAlias directives are used to map between URLs and filesystem paths. This allows for content which is not directly under the DocumentRoot served as part of the web document tree. The ScriptAlias directive has the additional effect of marking the target directory as containing only CGI scripts.

The DirectoryIndex directive sets the list of resources to look for, when the client requests an index of the directory by specifying a / at the end of the directory name.
