Install Apache on a Mac with Homebrew | Apache Config Issues

Hi,

Following the articles here: https://echo.co/blog/os-x-1010-yosemite-local-development-environment-apache-php-and-mysql-homebrew

Under the Apache heading, when It's time to configure a vHost, these were the instructions:

(export USERHOME=$(dscl . -read /Users/`whoami` NFSHomeDirectory | awk -F"\: " '{print $2}') ; cat > ~/Sites/httpd-vhosts.conf <<EOF
#
# Listening ports.
#
#Listen 8080  # defined in main httpd.conf
Listen 8443
 
#
# Use name-based virtual hosting.
#
NameVirtualHost *:8080
NameVirtualHost *:8443
 
#
# Set up permissions for VirtualHosts in ~/Sites
#
<Directory "${USERHOME}/Sites">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
        Require all granted
    </IfModule>

        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </IfModule>
</Directory>

<VirtualHost _default_:8080>
    ServerName localhost
    DocumentRoot "${USERHOME}/Sites"

<VirtualHost _default_:8443>

    Include "${USERHOME}/Sites/ssl/ssl-shared-cert.inc"
    DocumentRoot "${USERHOME}/Sites"
</VirtualHost>

I want the web address to be .local instead of .dev to appear as testsite.local

I tried setting the from ServerAlias *.dev to ServerAlias *.local. and was unsuccessful.

What do I need to do to make this work? Outside of doing what is says in this code area, is there anything else I have to do?

Thanks!
