Drupal 7 multisite not working

I am trying to setup a multisite for an existing drupal 7 site. What I've done is

  1. Created a db and imported the existing sites db to use with the new site

  2. Created a folder inside sites directory called mysite.local and copied settings.ph and changed the db configurations with the new one.

  3. Added an entry in /etc/hosts file.

    127.0.0.1 mysite.local

  4. Added a file mysite.local.conf in /etc/apache2/sites-available and added the following lines.

        
        DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/drupal/sites/mysite.local"
        ServerName mysite.local
        ServerAlias mysite.local
    `

    and enabled the site.

  5. Then added a symbolic link to this directory

    ln -s /var/www/html/drupal /var/www/html/drupal/sites/mysite.local

But I am getting 403 while accessig mysite.local.

Can any one help me to figure out what is going wrong here

Even if it is a multisite you need to point it to the root directory. Drupal will figure out based off the domain name where to pull the settings.php from. Change your DocumentRoot back to /var/www/html/drupal
