Tried to access a Rails app on the local PC by entering in eaa via Chrome
but ended up with a web search instead. How do I access the Rails app
locally? Below is the Apache config for the application:
*<VirtualHost *:80> *
* ServerName eaa*
* RailsEnv production*
* DocumentRoot /var/rails-apps/eaa/public*
* <Directory /var/rails-apps/eaa/public> *
* # Relax Apache security settings .*
* AllowOverride all*
* # MultiViews must be turned off .*
* Options -MultiViews*
* </Directory>*
*
*
* ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log*
*</VirtualHost>*
Had a look through the Apache error log and only found the following info
message:
*[Thu Feb 14 14:36:41 2013] [notice] Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu)
Phusion_Passenger/3.0.19 configured -- resuming normal operations*

Do you have eaa mapped to localhost in your /etc/hosts file?

Don''t have an entry for eaa in the hosts file. Tried accessing the website after adding the entry but ended up with the same result.

Hmm.. not sure then. This is a line out of my /etc/hosts file: 192.168.1.10 tamwiki.caesar.local tamwiki.caesar tamwiki <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName tamwiki.caesar.local ServerAlias tamwiki ServerAdmin tamara@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/tamwiki <Directory /var/www/vhosts/tamwiki> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride All Order allow,deny allow from 192.168 allow from 127.0.0.1 </Directory> </VirtualHost> With that, I can plug "http://tamwiki", "http://tamwiki.caesar", or "http://tamwiki.caesar.local" into the address bar and have it work.

Managed to access the website by adding *Listen 1025* to the Apache config file, and adding an entry to the hosts file. Have used a different port for the website (in its VirtualHost entry). Port 80 is already taken by the default website. Using a different IP address only works for a website if it is accessed remotely, not locally (on the same PC).

My virtual hosts file has this at the top: # Use name-based virtual hosting. NameVirtualHost *:80 Also, I don''t think you want to have a single-component domain name. For example, if the site would eventually go live at eea.com, then you could set up your dev site with servername of eea.local, so that once the site is live you can access both the live site and your local site without having to change your hosts file. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
