Apache Alias file could not be found

I want to set up an alias in apache like this:

http://example.com/deploy

I do this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
        Alias   "/deploy/" "/var/www/deploy/"

        <Directory "/var/www/deploy/">
                Require all granted
        </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Here the folders:

[root@asd]# ls -lisaR /var/www/deploy/
/var/www/deploy/:
total 4
    125 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 apache apache 23 Jan  9 13:20 .
8887786 0 drwxr-xr-x 5 root   root   47 Jan  9 13:19 ..
 148408 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 19 Jan  9 13:17 index.php
[root@asd]#

I get always a 404 error. The error says this:

Not Found The requested URL /deploy was not found on this server.

If you are using Apache version 2.4.19 or later you can just write in configuration file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
        Alias    "/deploy/"
        <Directory "/var/www/deploy/">
                Require all granted
        </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Also you should verify if mod_alias is enabled, typing sudo a2enmod mod_alias If still doesn't solve your problem you could try to use mod_rewrite:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName undesired.example.com
  ServerAlias example.com notthis.example.com

  Redirect "/" "http://www.example.com/"
</VirtualHost>

Example source from: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/remapping.html
