I've set up a virtualhost on WAMP. The address is http://privatesite
(which works)
However, now that I have set up this virtual host, the default localhost does not work and I'm not sure how to rectify it.
My hosts file looks like this:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself. # 127.0.0.1 localhost # ::1 localhost 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.0.1 privatesite
My Apache httpd-vhosts.conf
file looks like this:
# # Virtual Hosts # # If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your # machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations # use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn't need to worry about # IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below. # # Please see the documentation at # <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/> # for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts. # # You may use the command line option '-S' to verify your virtual host # configuration. # # Use name-based virtual hosting. # #NameVirtualHost *:80 # # VirtualHost example: # Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container. # The first VirtualHost section is used for all requests that do not # match a ServerName or ServerAlias in any <VirtualHost> block. # <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/privatesite/trunk/" ServerName privatesite ServerAlias privatesite </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/" ServerName localhost ServerAlias localhost </VirtualHost>
As you can see, I have tried to "resetup" the localhost, however, it all seems to point to my "privatesite" folder now it seems.
