How to Set-Up A Multiple IP Based Apache Virtual-Hosts Loopback for Localhost on Mac OS X

1. Open Terminal Window
   (Press “Enter” to Execute Commands)

2. Make a Loopback Alias

   sudo su

   If Got “User is Not in Sudoers file” then see: How to Enable sudo
   Example:

   ifconfig lo0 alias 127.0.0.2

3. Inserts New IP on /etc/hosts

   nano /etc/hosts

   Modify Line Containing localhost for Example Like:

   127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2 localhost

   Ctrl+x to Save & Exit :)

4. Enabling Virtual Host

   1. Enable Virtual-Host Conf File

      nano /conf/httpd.conf

      Check that the Line Below Is Not Commented Out…

      Include /extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

      (By Default apache2 Dir is Inside /private/etc/)

   2. Make the New Host Directory

      mkdir /Library/WebServer/Documents2

      echo 'Working!' > /Library/WebServer/Documents2/index.html

   3. Set-Up IP Based Virtual-Hosts

      nano /extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

      Inserts Something Like:

      
      ServerAdmin admin1@example.com
      DocumentRoot “/Library/WebServer/Documents”
      ServerName localhost.1
      ErrorLog “/private/var/log/apache2/localhost1.com-error_log”
      
      
      ServerAdmin admin2@example.com
      DocumentRoot “/Library/WebServer/Documents2”
      ServerName localhost.2
      ErrorLog “/private/var/log/apache2/localhost2.com-error_log”
      

   4. Give Permissions to New Host Root Directory

      nano /conf/httpd.conf

      Inserts Below the Existing Root Directory:

      
      Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
      AllowOverride None
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
      

5. Restart Apache

6. Next Access New Virtual Host on Browser
   It Should Be Just Successfully Working! :)
