In apache 2.4 I have several virtual hosts configured — properly, I believe —
in /opt/local/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf.
One of the virtual hosts works just fine, but others do not.
** This one works **
For example, once apache is running, in the browser I CAN load
“myhomepage.local” thanks to this part of httpd-vhosts.conf:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin [email protected]
DocumentRoot "/Users/me/Sites/MyHomePage"
ServerName MyHomePage.local
ServerAlias www.MyHomePage.local
ErrorLog "var/log/apache2/me-MyHomePageerror_log"
CustomLog "var/log/apache2/me-MyHomePage-access_log" common
<Directory /Users/murray/Sites/MyHomePage>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
** This one does NOT work **
However, if I try to load me-htdocs.local in the browser, using this part of
httpd-vhosts.conf …
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin [email protected]
DocumentRoot "/Users/me/Sites/htdocs"
ServerName me-htdocs.local
ServerAlias www.me-htdocs.local
ErrorLog "var/log/apache2/me-htdocs-error_log"
CustomLog "var/log/apache2/me-htdocs-access_log" common
<Directory /Users/me/Sites/htdocs>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
… then this DOES NOT work: I get the default apache2 “It works!” page even
though the DocumentRoot /Users/murray/Sites/htdocs's
index.html file is quite different (e.g., it begins with a head having my name
in it).
Moreover, I get that same default apache2 “It works!” page if I try to load
murray-htdocs.local/index.php then I once again get the default apache “It
works!” page rather than having the .php file executed [which among other
things invokes phpinfo() ]
** PHP seems OK **
It’s NOT a question of the PHP configuration, because if I put a copy of that
index.php page into
/opt/local/www/apache2/html, then loading localhost/index.php DOES work.
So again, this seems to be an issue with the virtual hosts configuration.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
