title: Apache alias outside of virtual host document route
body: <p>I have a situation where my images are on the same level of my document root.</p>
  
  <p>So I need /Users/jwindhall/Sites/gdw/my_app/images (www.example.local/images)</p>
  
  <p>to point to /Users/jwindhall/Sites/gdw/images.</p>
  
  <p>I've been doing:</p>
  
  <p>And the rest... </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
  ServerAdmin example@whatever.com
  DocumentRoot "/Users/jwindhall/Sites/gdw/my_app/"
  ServerName www.example.local
  ServerAlias www.example.local
  &lt;Directory "/Users/jwindhall/Sites/gdw/my_app"&gt;
     Options All Includes Indexes FollowSymLinks
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
     AllowOverride All
  &lt;/Directory&gt;
  Alias /images /Users/jwindhall/Sites/gdw/images
  &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
