I'm trying to get apache to forward all requests on port 80 to 127.0.0.1:8000, which is where the django dev server runs. I think I have it forwarding properly, but there must be an issue with 127.0.0.1:8000 not being run by apache?
I'm running the django dev server in an ubuntu
vmware instance, and I'd other people in the office to see the apps in development without having to promote anything to our actual dev/staging servers.
Right now the virtual machine picks up an IP for itself, and when I point a browser to that url with the defualt apache config, I get the default apache page.
I've since changed the httpd.conf file to the following to try and get it to forward the requests to the django dev server:
ServerName localhost
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName localhost
ServerAdmin
[email protected]
ProxyRequests off
ProxyPass * http://127.0.0.1:8000
</VirtualHost>
All I get are 404s with this, and in error.log I get the following (192.168.1.101 is the IP of my computer 192.168.1.142 is the IP of the virtual machine):
