I have my local dev environment set up with Pow and I then make Apache listen on Port 81 for any PHP apps I'm doing on .dev. I'm currently working on a Wordpress Sub-domain multisite yet I was stumped as the sub-domain alias wasn't working for me locally using the following...
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | <Directory "/Users/olliekav/Sites/"> AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory> <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:81> ServerName any.dev ServerAlias *.dev VirtualDocumentRoot "/Users/olliekav/Sites/%1" </VirtualHost> |
It turns out I needed to change the VirtualDocumentRoot to the following...
1 | VirtualDocumentRoot "/Users/olliekav/Sites/%-2" |
And Voilà, the sub-domain is now working.
%-2 in the VirtualDocumentRoot represents the penultimate dot-separated part of foo.com, i.e. foo. You could then have directories as you wish that map to the sites
