To add local.devserver.com
to your /etc/hosts
file while keeping the existing entries, you can edit the file as follows:
- Open the
/etc/hosts
file with a text editor:
sudo nano /etc/hosts
- Add the following line to map
local.devserver.com
tolocalhost
:
127.0.0.1 local.devserver.com
Your /etc/hosts
file should now look something like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost
# 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
127.0.0.1 local.devserver.com
Save and Exit
- Press
Ctrl + O
to save the file. - Press
Enter
to confirm. - Press
Ctrl + X
to exit the editor.
Verify
After editing the /etc/hosts
file, you can verify that local.devserver.com
correctly resolves to 127.0.0.1
:
ping local.devserver.com
You should see output indicating that local.pref.com
is resolving to 127.0.0.1
.
Restart Apache
If you haven’t already, restart Apache to ensure it picks up the new virtual host configuration:
sudo systemctl restart apache2
Now you should be able to access your application at http://local.devserver.com:4200/
, and it will be proxied to http://localhost:4200/signin
.
