I made a WIP, I wanted to interact apache2 with nodejs.
I made a few steps before apache2 configurations.
- apt install nodejs-legacy npm apache2
- npm install –upgrade npm
- npm install -g bower grunt express node-php
- service apache2 stop
Then I need to make a personal configuration inside /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ with the 000-default.conf
Inside this conf file I added with nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
<VirtualHost *:8080>
ServerAdmin admin@crawl.com #or your email
ServerName crawl
ServerAlias www.crawl.com
ProxyRequests off
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
<Location />
ProxyPass http://localhost:8000/
ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:8000/
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
Then I restart the apache2 service through this command: service apache2 restart.
Then I got this configuration working with Bash on Ubuntu on Windows:
<VirtualHost *:80>
# The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
# the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
# redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
# specifies what hostname must appear in the request’s Host: header to
# match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
# value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
# However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
#ServerName www.example.com
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
# Available loglevels: trace8, …, trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,
# error, crit, alert, emerg.
# It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular
# modules, e.g.
#LogLevel info ssl:warn
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
# For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
# enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to
# include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the
# following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
# after it has been globally disabled with “a2disconf”.
#Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
ProxyPreserveHost on
ProxyRequests on
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
#<Location />
ProxyPass /node http://localhost:8000/
ProxyPassReverse /node http://localhost:8000/
#</Location>
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
# vim: syntax=apache ts=4 sw=4 sts=4 sr noet
But I had issues, fixing them. I couldn’t figure out yet which issues are in these configures. Now fixed it I think.

Besides it’s needed to install XMing for GUI, apt install apache2, libxml2-dev libapr1 libapr1-dev.
Thank you. I will keep this updated.
