.htaccess and Vagrant

Hey Chris,

Personally, along with what I hope to be quite a few people here, I'd suggest that you checkout this lesson regarding Laravel Homestead (2).

https://laracasts.com/lessons/say-hello-to-laravel-homestead-two

You'll find it a lot easier to maintain multiple hosts in the future.

Would need more info on your DocumentRoot and your config for the site. If you post that, we'll be able to help better.

Ah i'll take a look at that tutorial tonight...

Heres my laravel-tut.conf file in the sites-available:

    ServerName laravel.tut
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /var/www/laravel-tut/public_html

    # 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

Is it the apache2.conf settings your looking for??

Thanks for your responses so far..

Okay well that looks fine but where's the Options part? .htaccess probably isn't enabled.

If you're installing Vagrant and a VM manually, you should really check out Homestead or (my preferred) Vaprobash http://fideloper.github.io/Vaprobash/

Ill check them tonight and hopefully that will help.. Many thanks for all your help

Used Vaprobash a lot on three machines, works all the time and easy to add sites. Can also easily map a port so you can view sites from LAN (other machines).

Give me a shout/mention if you need help -> @bashy

Ah that sounds better it's handy checking some apps on another machine. I did find this if anyone followed the 'Getting off MAMP' Tutorial. https://gist.github.com/JeffreyWay/af0ee7311abfde3e3b73
This has the walkthrough for setting up multiple sites which work.

But after setting up Vaprobash im glad i found that solution after otherwise id not have found Vaprobash :)

Yeah that guide is fine but Vaprobash does it all for you :). There's even a command to add new sites

sudo vhost -s domain.tld -d /vagrant/site1/public
