Topic: Problems with vhost!?

[jmansa]

I have just installed the xampp package version 1.6.0a with apache 2.2. I am desparetly trying to setup namebased virtual host and have tryid to follow the guide at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/en/vhosts/name-based.html but with no succes.

Everytime I try to reach the site1 or site 2 from a internet browser by typing the www.site1.com or www.site2.com I allways only gets to the root of the htdocs folder where the xampp administration site is. It seems like it doesnt redirect it to the folders I have told it to do?

My httpd-vhosts file looks like this.

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName site1.com
ServerAlias www.site1.com
DocumentRoot C:/Program Files/xampp/htdocs/site1
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName site2.com
ServerAlias www.site2.com
DocumentRoot C:/Program Files/xampp/htdocs/site2
</VirtualHost>

Really hopes that somebody can help course its driving me crazy!!!

If only use the page for testing. You can edit the host file in

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

add below

Try removing the :80 - I found that was what I needed to do with the same package
