Disable a virtual host

$ sudo a2dissite [virtual_host]

a2dissite [-q|--quiet] [-m|--maintmode] [-p|--purge] [site]

a2dissite is a Debian-specific utility that disables Apache2 virtual host configurations by removing symbolic links from /etc/apache2/sites-enabled. Site configuration files remain in /etc/apache2/sites-available and can be re-enabled later.
The tool silently succeeds if the specified site is already disabled. After disabling a site, Apache must be restarted or reloaded for changes to take effect.
