I have problem with creating virtual host. I am using Windows 7 x64 Professional. In file C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
I have only this lines:
127.0.0.1 myhost
127.0.0.1 www.myhost
And in file C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf
I have this:
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias www.localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/Users/Me/Dropbox/Project/public"
ServerName myhost
ServerAlias www.myhost
<Directory "C:/Users/Me/Dropbox/Project/public">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
And of course I have restared my Apache server after adding this lines in those files.
Unfortunatly typing myhost
or www.myhost
in my browser redirect me to the myhost/xampp
.
I have already search and I have found on google and also on stackoverflow description how to configure virtual hosts using xampp but how can I recognize I have done everything alright. I know that my problem isn't new but I didn't found working solution for me.
I have also recognized that typing localhost
in my browser redirect me alsto localhost/xampp
. I don't know whether these problems are linked in my case.
