Thread: How do I make a file in the shell in root/var?

I'm demanding to activate apache2 as well as one of the steps on is to "sudo mv basic.html /var/www/basic.html". The response I receive is that basic. Html is not established. How do I generate this in the var/www file?

You don't have to make the file as apache contain a default file that state "It works!"

But if you required making a test file, you can do it like this: touch /var/www/basic.html

If you hunted somewhat in that file: nano /var/www/basic.html
(control x, after that y when done to save)
