vagrant host name with port number does not execute php file

Question

I am using vagrant tool for virtulization, below are the version number of OS and tools I am using.

Ubuntu : 13.04

Vagrant : Vagrant 1.5.1

VM box : 4.2.10_Ubuntur84101

Below is my vagrant file content

    # -*- mode: ruby -*-
    # vi: set ft=ruby :

    # Vagrantfile API/syntax version. Don't touch unless you know what you're doing!
    VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2"

    Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
      # All Vagrant configuration is done here. The most common configuration
      # options are documented and commented below. For a complete reference,
      # please see the online documentation at vagrantup.com.

      # Every Vagrant virtual environment requires a box to build off of.
      config.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise32"
      config.vm.provision :shell, :path => "getmyltd_bootstrap.sh"
      config.vm.network :forwarded_port, host: 4567, guest: 80

      # The url from where the 'config.vm.box' box will be fetched if it
      # doesn't already exist on the user's system.
      # config.vm.box_url = "http://domain.com/path/to/above.box"

      # Create a forwarded port mapping which allows access to a specific port
      # within the machine from a port on the host machine. In the example below,
      # accessing "localhost:8080" will access port 80 on the guest machine.
      # config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080

      # Create a private network, which allows host-only access to the machine
      # using a specific IP.
      # config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33.10"

      # Create a public network, which generally matched to bridged network.
      # Bridged networks make the machine appear as another physical device on
      # your network.
      # config.vm.network "public_network"

      # If true, then any SSH connections made will enable agent forwarding.
      # Default value: false
      # config.ssh.forward_agent = true

      # Share an additional folder to the guest VM. The first argument is
      # the path on the host to the actual folder. The second argument is
      # the path on the guest to mount the folder. And the optional third
      # argument is a set of non-required options.
      # config.vm.synced_folder "../data", "/vagrant_data"

      # Provider-specific configuration so you can fine-tune various
      # backing providers for Vagrant. These expose provider-specific options.
      # Example for VirtualBox:
      #
      # config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
      #   # Don't boot with headless mode
      #   vb.gui = true
      #
      #   # Use VBoxManage to customize the VM. For example to change memory:
      #   vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "1024"]
      # end
      #
      # View the documentation for the provider you're using for more
      # information on available options.

      # Enable provisioning with Puppet stand alone.  Puppet manifests
      # are contained in a directory path relative to this Vagrantfile.
      # You will need to create the manifests directory and a manifest in
      # the file hashicorp/precise32.pp in the manifests_path directory.
      #
      # An example Puppet manifest to provision the message of the day:
      #
      # # group { "puppet":
      # #   ensure => "present",
      # # }
      # #
      # # File { owner => 0, group => 0, mode => 0644 }
      # #
      # # file { '/etc/motd':
      # #   content => "Welcome to your Vagrant-built virtual machine!
      # #               Managed by Puppet.\n"
      # # }

      # config.vm.provision "puppet" do |puppet|
      #   puppet.manifests_path = "manifests"
      #   puppet.manifest_file  = "site.pp"
      # end

      # Enable provisioning with chef solo, specifying a cookbooks path, roles
      # path, and data_bags path (all relative to this Vagrantfile), and adding
      # some recipes and/or roles.
      #
      # config.vm.provision "chef_solo" do |chef|
      #   chef.cookbooks_path = "../my-recipes/cookbooks"

      #   chef.add_recipe "mysql"
      #   chef.add_role "web"
      #
      #   # You may also specify custom JSON attributes:
      #   chef.json = { :mysql_password => "foo" }
      # end

      # Enable provisioning with chef server, specifying the chef server URL,
      # and the path to the validation key (relative to this Vagrantfile).
      #
      # The Opscode Platform uses HTTPS. Substitute your organization for
      # ORGNAME in the URL and validation key.
      #
      # If you have your own Chef Server, use the appropriate URL, which may be
      # HTTP instead of HTTPS depending on your configuration. Also change the
      # validation key to validation.pem.
      #
      # config.vm.provision "chef_client" do |chef|
      #   chef.chef_server_url = "https://api.opscode.com/organizations/ORGNAME"
      #   chef.validation_key_path = "ORGNAME-validator.pem"
      # end
      #
      # If you're using the Opscode platform, your validator client is
      # ORGNAME-validator, replacing ORGNAME with your organization name.
      #
      # If you have your own Chef Server, the default validation client name is
      # chef-validator, unless you changed the configuration.
      #
      #   chef.validation_client_name = "ORGNAME-validator"
    end

Vagrant up, vagrant reload commands works fine without any errors. and enables the port number 4567 successfully.

In my local machine I have a virtual host, content of that is as below.

When my VM is working state http://admin.testmyltd.com:4567 and http://admin.testmyltd.com gives me access to my project directory, it's image is as below

Hitting http://admin.testmyltd.com/app_dev.php runs default route properly, but hitting http://admin.testmyltd.com:4567/app_dev.php downloads app_dev.php file instead of executing it.

All file in project have full permissions.

getmyltd_bootstrap.sh file content is here

Can you guide me where the things went wrong ? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You need to install libapache2-mod-php5 in guest os (vagrant box) to execute .php scripts,

$sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5

Then if required, enable it manually,

$sudo a2enmod php5

and finally restart your apache2

$sudo service apache2 restart

EDIT

Make sure your apache under vagrant box is Listening on port "4567" as you want it to access from that specific port.

/etc/apache2/httpd.conf

Listen 4567
