Topic: problem setting up virtual hosts

Can you paste the exact error message? Does the virtualhost work without any scripts(php,html) in it?

[sawo]

I mean does apache gives some error when you type http://skip/ , or it shows the same directory as http://localhost/ ?

[rob62]

http://skip brings up:

Just delete all the html and php files that come with the wamp package.

[rob62]

Whats that going to accomplish??

[sawo]

Probably the default html or php file that comes with WAMP is looking for some dirs that are missing. Ofcourse you can place your own stuff that will work flawlessly without these files.

[rob62]

Your half right.

The index.html files do not contain a path. I simply modified them to shoe which dir they are loading from.


index.php is a problem.

I really don't want to delete them. They are all the same and need a simple modification. I don't know what pathe to use in the vir dirs

They contain the path "wamp" which i believe is the problem.

<?php
if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && ('on' == $_SERVER['HTTPS'])) {
$uri = 'https://';
} else {
$uri = 'http://';
}
$uri .= $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
header('Location: '.$uri.'/wamp/');
exit;
?>

In the skip dir I changed index.php file, "wamp" to "skip" and that did't work.

index.* files should load automatically. There is something sill wrong with the path when vhosts file is enabled.



Something is wrong with the wamp installation

[sawo]

There is nothing wrong with the installation - /wamp/ is subdirectory, not vhost.
Im not 100% sure, but if you want to use the vhost skip instead of the subdirectory /wamp/ you must replace the line

[rob62]

I think they are a good way to test each website dir. Once they work, I will remove them.

Index.html is not loading. PHP files are not running.

The modification you gave didn't work.

http://skip shows

I cant help you more via the forums, because looks like your installation is really messed up, but i cant tell you exactly where.
The only suggestion i can make right now is to uninstall everything and use AppServ - its very easy and work flawlessly out-of-the-box on every single box i have tested it on even with vhosts enabled.

[rob62]

Thanks for trying.

Perhaps someone else will respond to theses posts with different ideas.

I looked at AppServ and it does not address stinking Vista which I use.

Also I can not tell what year the last version was released.

[sawo]

I used AppServ with vista 32bit and it worked flawlessly what issues do you have under vista?
You can see the post date on the front page:

With Vista, it's always "mama may I?"
I shut UAC off
