1) I'm assuming you are using the built in Apache and didn't install via
MAMP or something?
2) Run this to make sure DNS isn't borked:
ping localhost
(just looking for an IP to resolve here, not a ping reply)
3) Run this to make sure you don't have an error in your Apache configs
someplace.
sudo /usr/sbin/apachectl -t
("Syntax OK" means you've not screwed up the configs)
4) The default location of Apache's home is here on a mac. Can you drop a
static foo.html in there and get it to come up in your browser at
http://127.0.0.1/foo.html?
/Library/WebServer/Documents
5) I actually use the above location for all my app file directories and
just create virtual hosts for each (instead of the userdir ~ thing).
An examnple entry might look something like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents/clientproject"
DirectoryIndex index.cfm
ServerName clientproject.localtest.me
</VirtualHost>
Localtest.me always resolves to 127.0.0.1 and lets you use subdomains to
differentiate sites. So each of my projects has a similar line in
extra/httpd-vhosts.conf. This also lets me turn on or off CF9, CF10, Railo,
or Lucee per virtualhost depending on what the client is using in their
environment.
