This is an Apache configuration problem, nothing to do with CakePHP.
What do you have in your httpd.conf (or whatever file Dreamhost has
you edit for your Apache configuration).
I run my stuff as a virtual host on my laptop, and have a setup like
this in my httpd.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ServerName local.www.ibl.org
DocumentRoot /Users/chartjes/src/www.ibl.org/webroot
<Directory /Users/chartjes/src/www.ibl.org/webroot>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
The critical thing is making sure you tell Apache where the root of
your web app is via DocumentRoot.
Hope that helps.
