WampServer

Hi,

I am new to WampServer and I haven't found any documentation. Perhaps somebody would be so kind as to help me out here.

I have edited my HOSTS file to point a particular domain to 127.0.0.1 and when I enter the domain into my browser, I successfully reach the files that are within Wamp's www directory.

I would like to emulate several websites - Is it possible to have more than one website?

yes using the vhosts in apache.

enable it in the httpd.conf about 10 lines from bottom

#include extra/vhosts.conf

to

include extra/vhosts.conf




then open vhosts.conf in the extra folder and add a paragraph as in the exmaple for each site.



Im Currently in the process of making a small application to do this.

Many thanks for your replies.

I attempted to follow the instructions for setting up the virtual hosts and I have done something wrong. When I try to go to the websites, they cannot be found, but when I comment out the line - Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf - in httpd-conf and re-start the services I am able to reach the WampServer configuration page.

This is what I have in httpd-vhosts.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.domainone.co.uk
ServerAlias domainone.co.uk domainone
DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/domainone
ErrorLog C:/wamp/www/domainone/logs/error.log
CustomLog C:/wamp/www/domainone/logs/access.log common
</VirtualHost>


<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.domaintwo.co.uk
ServerAlias domaintwo.co.uk domaintwo
DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/domaintwo
ErrorLog C:/wamp/www/domaintwo/logs/error.log
CustomLog C:/wamp/www/domaintwo/logs/access.log common
</VirtualHost>

domainone and domaintwo folders have been created within www, as well as the logs directories.

What have I done wrong?

OK - This did work:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www/domainone"
ServerName domainone.co.uk.localhost
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>

but the second entry did not:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www/domaintwo"
ServerName domaintwo.co.uk.localhost
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>

I am only connecting to the domain that is listed first.

I think I have worked this out.


<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www/domainone"
ServerName www.domainone.co.uk
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www/domaintwo"
ServerName www.domaintwo.co.uk
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www/domaintwo"
ServerName domaintwo.co.uk
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.localhost-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction from the start
