How to create virtual hosts in MAMP?

问题

I am new to Mac but used Ubuntu for development for a long time. I know how to create virtual hosts in Ubuntu but have no idea about Mac. I have created a hosts entry like below :

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1       localhost mysite.loc
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost

But what to do next?

回答1:

While googling, I found these steps to easily create virtual hosts on MAMP:

Open your console in mac and edit your hosts file like this

sudo vim /etc/hosts

This opens a system file that contains the following line:

127.0.0.1    localhost

add your desired host name after local host:

127.0.0.1    localhost mysite.loc

press ESC, then :wq! to overwrite and close the file.

Now go to your MAMP directory and open apache config file located at Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/httpd.conf in any text editor and locate the following lines:

# Virtual Hosts
# Include /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Remove the hash (pound) sign from the beginning of the line that begins with Include

# Virtual Hosts
Include /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Save the file, and then open Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf. This is where you define the virtual hosts.

At the bottom of the page are two examples of how to define virtual hosts in Apache. They look like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com
    DocumentRoot "/Applications/MAMP/Library/docs/dummy-host.example.com"
    ServerName dummy-host.example.com
    ServerAlias www.dummy-host.example.com
    ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-error_log"
    CustomLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.example.com
    DocumentRoot "/Applications/MAMP/Library/docs/dummy-host2.example.com"
    ServerName dummy-host2.example.com
    ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-error_log"
    CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>

Edit both examples. Virtual hosts override the existing localhost, so the first one needs to re-establish localhost. Edit the second one for the virtual host you want to add. Only the DocumentRoot and ServerName directives are required. To add a virtual host for mysite, the edited definitions should look like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /Applications/MAMP/htdocs
    ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "/Users/username/Sites/mysite"
    ServerName mysite.loc
</VirtualHost>

This assumes that you want to locate the files for mysite in your Sites folder. Replace "username" in the second definition with your own Mac username. If you want to store the files in a different location, adjust the value of DocumentRoot accordingly.

If you want to create more than one virtual host, copy one of the definitions, and edit it accordingly.

Save all the files you have edited, and restart the servers in the MAMP control panel. You should now be able to access the virtual host with the following URL: http://mysite.loc/.

Enjoy..!!

Allow virtual hosts

Go to Applications > MAMP > conf > apache > httpd.conf

Find this line:

# Virtual hosts
#Include /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Uncomment the code by removing the hash symbol.

# Virtual hosts
Include /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Allow SymLink Override

Find this line in that same httpd.conf file.

<Directory />
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>

change None to All.

<Directory />
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
</Directory>

Add the virtual host path

Go to Applications > MAMP > conf > apache > extra > httpd-vhosts.conf

add the virtual host with servname and document root like the below code
```
<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName example.dev
  DocumentRoot "/path/to/directory"
</VirtualHost>
```
Allow your computer to recognize your local domain

Open terminal and type
```
sudo pico /etc/hosts
```
then add your domain
```
127.0.0.1 example.dev
```
Restart your server.

If the url is showing error in chrome try safari

In my config in MAMP, only the first virtual host was responding.
After hours of search I founded the instruction for solving the problem (before listing virtual hosts definitions) :

NameVirtualHost *:80

Now, my 3 virtual hosts are working !

Recently I changed from XAMP to MAMP on MAC. I tried to set up my last virtual hosts, but MAMP's 8888 port number was avoid the regular work.

Finally I found the solution. You could change the Listen port and the ServerName in httpd.conf as you could find in the following post: https://www.taniarascia.com/setting-up-virtual-hosts/

Adding to the answer of Ritesh

You probably also want to add a directory configuration in your httpd.conf similar to the one that is already there, but for your the document root of your new server.

For Example:

<Directory "/Users/username/Sites/mysite">
    Options All
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    XSendFilePath "/Users/username/Sites/mysite"
</Directory>

I followed this post, as recommended by szatti1489, and it worked for me: https://www.taniarascia.com/setting-up-virtual-hosts/

A couple of points are worth mentioning though:

This line didn't already exist in my httpd.conf file, I had to add it: Include /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
I had to use the .test domain ending, not .dev for my VirtualHost ServerName. The post mentions this, but then continues using.dev. Apparently, Chrome didn't support the .dev domain ending after 2017, although it didn't work in Firefox or Safari for me either.
