Hosting Ghost on an Apache Subdomain

My server runs on apache, but Ghost requires node.js to be hosted. Rest of my website runs on apache. How can I make it run on a subdomain of my website without it interfering with other applications?

Using mod proxy will be a good choice. Here is a small template:

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerName your-url.com
     ServerAlias www.your-url.com
     ProxyRequests off
     ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:2368/
     ProxyPassReverse / http:/127.0.0.1:2368/
</VirtualHost>

But if you haven't use Proxy mode before, please use this command:a2enmod proxy before you restart your Appache service.

You can rewrite the url to redirect on the port of your nodejs-app:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^nodeapp/(.*) http://localhost:3000/$1 [P]

If your app starts at port 3000, you can access it at: http://www.your-domain.com/nodeapp/...

Use apache mod proxy.

Setup your virtual host configuration to proxypass it to the port which ghost is listening on.
