如何在Mac OSX 10.10 Yosemite上设置虚拟主机

How to set up Virtual Hosts in Apache on Mac OSX 10.10 Yosemite

August 1, 2014 29 Comments

Setting up Virtual Hosts in Apache on Mac OSX 10.10 Yosemite is straight forward after you have your local Web Development environment up and running – get your web development up and running first including Apache, PHP and MySQL following this  AMP stack guide here 10.10 if required.

The process of setting up Virtual Hosts is done easier in the Terminal either using nano orvi with sudo or as a root user,  or you can you a GUI visual editor like Text Wrangler which allows access to the /private/etc directory by clicking ‘Show Everything” in the open dialog box.

Allow the vhosts configuration from the Apache configuration file httpd.conf

Open the httpd.conf

sudo nano /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

Search for ‘vhosts‘ and uncomment the include line

# Virtual hosts

Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Also allow another module to run by uncommenting:

LoadModule vhost_alias_module libexec/apache2/mod_vhost_alias.so

Edit the vhosts.conf file

Open this file to add in the vhost.

sudo nano /etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

An example in the file is given of the format required to add additional domains, just follow this to create your new virtual host:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.example.com
DocumentRoot "/usr/docs/dummy-host2.example.com"
ServerName dummy-host2.example.com
ErrorLog "/private/var/log/apache2/dummy-host2.example.com-error_log"
CustomLog "/private/var/log/apache2/dummy-host2.example.com-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>

We can take this example and extend on it, if you wanted a domain named apple.com for example, you can copy the existing text block and edit to suit:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName apple.com
    ServerAlias www.apple.com
    DocumentRoot "/Users/USERNAME/Sites/apple"
    ErrorLog "/private/var/log/apache2/apple.com-error_log"
    CustomLog "/private/var/log/apache2/apple.com-access_log" common
    ServerAdmin web@coolestguidesontheplanet.com
</VirtualHost>

So in the example above a vhost for apple.com is created and the document root is in the Sites folder, in the text block above I have also added in some log files, what you need to change is the document root location username and domain name to suit your needs. Finish and save the file.

Now also you need to map the IP address to be the localhost.

Map Your IP address to localhost

sudo nano /etc/hosts

Add the Domain and ‘www‘ alias to resolve to the localhost address

127.0.0.1 apple.com www.apple.com

 

Restart Apache

sudo apachectl restart

Check out your local vhost domain in the browser

Losing Localhost

One caveat to note about virtual hosts is that once set up you lose your older document root previously at /LIbrary/WebServer/Documents or accessed in the browser athttp://localhost what happens is that you get a 403 Forbidden Error. But the ~/username document root is still compatible.

To get around this, you need to add in a vhost for localhost and declare this vhost before any of the others, in the same file:

sudo nano /etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Add in:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot /Library/WebServer/Documents/
</VirtualHost>

Restart Apache

sudo apachectl restart

Changing the WebServer Default User

One of the frustrations of using the Users/username/Sites folder for vhosts is the permissions issues with things like updates and authentication.

This is because the default webserver user which runs httpd is known as _www, which will not be the user in your local account. If your machine is only in use by you and the webserver will run only under your account then you can change the user.

Find Your User and Group

In the Terminal use the id command to see your username and group

id

You will get a bunch of user groups, you need your primary user uid and group gid names

uid=502(admin) gid=20(staff)

Change this back in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

Restart Apache

sudo apachectl restart

Restart Apache and now you are running httpd as your local account.
