Add multiple virtual host along with Passenger
Posted on January 5, 2010, under Shell Scripts.
I was having few projects on my MAC and was really bugged up with maintaining the port numbers and other stuffs, a real cumbersome.
After, Jacek’s thought on this, I had set up the following:
Install the gem:
sudo gem install ghost
after that add a virtual host
sudo ghost add paddy.local (a choice of your virtual host)
Install the Passenger gem:
sudo gem install passenger sudo passenger-install-apache2-module
After installing the apache module for passenger, you may have add the following lines (after installation it will tell based on your own enviroment)
(in your httpd.conf)
LoadModule passenger_module /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.2.8/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so PassengerRoot /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.2.8 PassengerRuby /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby
Also you may have to enable your virtual host too …by default, it may be disabled(commented) and you have to enable(uncomment) it
# Virtual hosts
Include /Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Next, you have to add the vitual host for your rails app.
(httpd-vhosts.conf)
ServerName www.yourhost.com DocumentRoot /somewhere/public
