Topic: Virtual Hosting - XP - Apache 2.2.2

[miller_kurt_e]

Greetings,

I am developing multiple sites. The scenario I'm trying to create is one where I can access each site internally (localhost) for development AND simultaneously allow external clients to preview the production site (separate directory) from my dynamic ip resolver (www.xxx.dynalias.com).

Thusfar, I am able to successfully map to the local development sites using virtual hosting and my hosts file. The problem I am struggling with is how to map the www.xxx.dynalias.com to more than one site. Is this even possible? As in www.xxx.dynalias.com/site1 or www.xxx.dynalias.com/site2 etc.


Here is my current config:

#
# Virtual Hosts
#

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "d:/xampp/xampp/htdocs"
<Directory "d:/xampp/xampp/htdocs">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName cvw.local
DocumentRoot "d:/webdev"
<Directory "d:/webdev">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName sfgh.local
DocumentRoot "d:/SFGHWeb"
<Directory "d:/SFGHWeb">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.xxx.dynalias.com
DocumentRoot "c:/web"
<Directory "c:/web">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

========================
My hosts file:

127.0.0.1 www.xxx.dynalias.com
127.0.0.1 xampp.local
127.0.0.1 cvw.local
127.0.0.1 sfgh.local
127.0.0.1 localhost

Thanks in advance,

Puzzling post. First thought is that it is not possible what you want. But maybe you can try to use mod_vhost_alias to map the first part of the domainname to the Document root.
