redirect app

I currently work on port 80, but coworkers work on port 3000. So the urls they send often do not work. I created an app that bounces all local 3000 requests to port 80. 

mkdir -p bounce/public bounce/tmp
cd bounce
created config.ru: 
app = proc do |env|
    url="http://#{env['SERVER_NAME']}#{env['REQUEST_URI']}"
    return [302, { "Content-Type" => "text/html", "Location" => url }, "try <a href=\"#{url}\">#{url}</a>" ]
end
run app
enabled port 3000 in /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf: 
Listen 3000
added entry to passenger pref pane. But it didn’t create the proper vhosts entry. I changed port 80 to 3000 
<VirtualHost *:3000>
  ServerName site1.local:3000
  ServerAlias test.local:3000
  DocumentRoot "/Users/kbrock/projects/bounce/public"
  RackEnv development
  <directory "/Users/kbrock/projects/bounce/public">
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
  </directory>
</VirtualHost>
All is working.
