Multiple Domain with SSL points to same document root

Virtualmin
1

Recently we migrated an application from cpanel to virtualmin manually and we are struggling to understand how to create a virtualhost which points to an existing document root. In cpanel you can do this with an addon domain with same document root and also you can install a separate ssl certificate.

Example:
https://primary.com (ssl enabled and pointing to /home/primary/public_html)
https://secondary.com (trying to point to the same document root /home/primary/public_html with a separate ssl certificate)

I know you can use alias for this purpose but alias wont allow you to install a new certificate.

Any suggestions or ideas greatly appreciated!

just an update:
OS: CentOS 7

https://www.virtualmin.com/node/37631
I followed the above instructions and edited the document root manually ‘/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf’ to point to the same path, but it leads to some other serious issues…

  1. PHP script execution mode changes to Apache mod_php and cannot be changed
  2. PHP Version selection not working

here is the edited config

I got it fixed by changing all the paths on the config to primary domain except for ssl path
