I want to set up a VirtualHost so that when I type the
project name in the address bar, it goes to the home page of the
project.
httpd-vhosts.conf files in both XAMPP configuration and apache configuration:
<VirtualHost project>
ServerAdmin
[email protected]
ServerName
project
DocumentRoot /Users/path/to/project/public
<Directory "/Users/path/to/project/public">
Options Includes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
</VirtualHost>
I have also tried with the path directly to the
project folder, and not the public folder of the
project.
the httpd.conf of XAMPP and apache :
# Virtual hosts
Include /Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
the /etc/hosts file:
127.0.0.1 other1
127.0.0.1 other2
127.0.0.1
project
I have tried :
127.0.0.1
project
127.0.0.1:3000
project
127.0.0.1 project:3000
I have also restarted the rails server and the XAMPP server many times after changes. I have it working so that the project:3000/ works, but how do I get it so that I dont have to specify the port number?
Notes:
All other VHosts are working well.
Rails 3.2.8 (willing to change)
Ruby 1.9.3
WEBrick server
