I have setup a virtualhost for MacOSX Apache installation.

These are my steps:

  • edit /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf removing comment from:

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

  • edit /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf, added:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.local
DocumentRoot "/Users/myusername/Sites/Test/public"
<Directory "/Users/myusername/Sites/Test/public">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

  • edit /private/etc/hosts added

    127.0.0.1 test.local

  • Restart Apache

But the VirtualHost does not work. To further isolate the problem, I check the same configuration with MAMP and the virtual host worked right, so the configuration files should be fine.

What can be wrong?

Maybe your config has wrong IP?

127.0.0.7 test.local

This one should work just fine:

127.0.0.1 test.local

Additionally you may have incorrect <VirtualHost> directives formatting (unless this is happened when you inserted text here). Instead of

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks 
Includes AllowOverride All

should be

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
AllowOverride All
