a2disconf

Disable a configuration file

$ sudo a2disconf [configuration_file]

$ sudo a2disconf -q [configuration_file]

$ sudo a2disconf -p [configuration_file]

a2disconf [-q|--quiet] [-m|--maintmode] [-p|--purge] [configuration]

a2disconf is a Debian-specific utility that disables Apache2 configuration files by removing symbolic links from /etc/apache2/conf-enabled. It works alongside a2enconf, which enables configurations.
The tool silently succeeds if the specified configuration is already disabled, making it safe for use in scripts. After disabling a configuration, Apache must be restarted or reloaded for changes to take effect.

This utility is Debian-specific and not available on other Linux distributions. Configuration changes require an Apache restart or reload to take effect.
