I am unable to create sub domains?

[WHM]
If you get an error that your sub domains are not enabled, make sure that either you have wildcarded the domain name or enabled the sub domains in WHM

[Manual]
Manual sub domain creation involve editting your apache configuration file. Edit your (httpd.conf) and add the following line:

Begin Line ---->

BytesLog domlogs/subdomain.maindomain.com-bytes_log
User username
Group groupname
ServerName subdomain.maindomain.com
ServerAdmin wwwadmin@maindomain.com

DocumentRoot /path/to/your/subdomain/folder
CustomLog domlogs/subdomain.maindomain.com combined
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /path/to/your/subdomain/folder/cgi-bin/

<----- End Line

Replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the account's IP address and replace subdomain with your subdomain name and maindomain with the main domain name.

Next you may want to add the sub domain to your dns zone file:

subdomain in A 14400 ipaddress
