  19. Apache: use /etc/hosts to resolve local hosts & use them for virtualhost definition
    2015-06-07
    apache domain host local programming/testing virtual web
    Permalink

    Pro: no need to setup a DNS server to test virtualhosts Con: keep in mind that all "fake" hosts will point to 127.0.0.1!

    1. Use /etc/hosts to declare test hosts / domains / subdomains
    #&lt;ip-address&gt;	&lt;hostname.domain.org&gt;	&lt;hostname&gt;
127.0.0.1	localhost.localdomain	localhost
127.0.0.1	host.localdomain	host
127.0.0.1	sub.host.localdomain	sub.host
::1		localhost.localdomain	localhost
    1. Allow per-user virtualhost definition in either (depending on your distro)
    • /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
    • /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

    Include /home/albert/.httpd/*.conf

    1. Profit! Create virtualhosts with local hostnames :)
