How to setup domain name at local machine on lamp?


Solution

  • Steps: 1. Copy sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/yourdomain.conf 2.Edit yourdoamin.conf: sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/yourdomain.conf 3.Configure DomainName and IP Address:

       <VirtualHost 12.0.0.12:80>
        # The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
        # the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
        # redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
        # specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
        # match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
        # value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
        # However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
        #ServerName www.example.com
    
        ServerAdmin webmaster@yourdoamin.com
        ServerName www.yourdomain.com
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html/yourprojectroot
    
        # Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,
        # error, crit, alert, emerg.
        # It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular
        # modules, e.g.
        #LogLevel info ssl:warn
    
        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
    
        # For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
        # enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to
        # include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the
        # following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
        # after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf".
        #Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
    </VirtualHost>
    

    save and exit. 4.Make entry in hosts file edit:

    sudo gedit /etc/hosts
    127.0.0.1   localhost
    127.0.1.1   pramodkharade-desktop
    127.0.0.12 www.yourdomain.com
    
    # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
    ::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
    fe00::0 ip6-localnet
    ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
    ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
    ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
    

    save and exit.

    sudo a2ensite yourdomain.conf
