Installing Apache

Add the Apache2 package with the command:

#apk add apache2

Move to the directory where your site will resides:

#cd /var/www/localhost/htdocs

And create an index.html file to test if everything is ok:

{{Cmd|#vi index.html

<html> <head> <title> My first page </title> </head> <body>

</body> </html>

That done, let us start apache2 web server:

rc-service apache2 start

Now you can create your html site and host in this directory.
