Question

So I am trying to setup my app with a name rather than using 127 0 0 1. Every single time I run grunt, my address is http://127.0.0.1:9000/#/ ... I've tried many things and nothing is working...I always get redirected to that place.

Here are my files:

httpd.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "/Users/myusername/Sites/MyApp/app"
    ServerName myapp.dev
    <Directory "/Users/myusername/Sites/MyApp/app">
    Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews Indexes
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from none
    Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

hosts

127.0.0.1 myapp.dev
::1 myapp.dev

Solution

@Dmitry Nikitenko is correct, you don't need Apache. You need to change your Gruntfile

The hostname option is only used to specify where livereload should connect to. This doesn't change the default url which is opened when you start Grunt. What you need is to specify a URL for open in your livereload options. For example:

  livereload: {
    options: {
      open: 'http://myapp.dev:9000',
      base: [
        '.tmp',
        '<%= yeoman.app %>'
      ]
    }

OTHER TIPS

You don't need Apache here. Connect is a web server, so it already serves your static files. Try to disable Apache and change your hostname option to localhost.
