[FIXED] os x MAMP apache virtual host laravel project misconfigured

Issue

MAMP is installed in a MacBook. I use the MAMP apache.

Based on many online resources, I have done the following:

1. I added 127.0.0.1 my-site.local to file /etc/host.

2. I uncommented Include /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf in /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/httpd.conf.

3. In /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf, I added

   <VirtualHost *:80>
           DocumentRoot "/Users/myname/laravel/mysite/public"
           ServerName my-site.local
           ServerAlias my-site.local
           <Directory "/Users/myname/laravel/mysite/public">
                   DirectoryIndex index.php
                   Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
                   AllowOverride All
                   Require all granted
           </Directory>
   </VirtualHost>
   

4. In /Users/myname/laravel/mysite/.htaccess file:

   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   
           Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
           RewriteEngine On
           #RewriteBase /
   
           # Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
           #RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
           #RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
           RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
           RewriteRule .* - [e=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]
   
           # Handle Front Controller...
           RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
           RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
           RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
   
           Require all granted
   
   </IfModule>
   

After all, localhost, localhost/MAMP, localhost/phpMyAdmin, all work, EXCEPT for my-site.local. It shows 500 Internal server error. The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Solution

Problem Solved! Because the apache has been updated to apache2.2, in the Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf, change Require all granted to Satisfy Any.

That is it!

It took me two days to figure it out~
