WampServer

Wamp Version 2.5

Adding an alias with textual wizard like subpath1/subpath2 receive an error 'unable to create conf file'
that because Wamp try to create a file named subpath1/subpath2.conf, in Windows is impossible.

So I changed line 123 of file \wamp\scripts\addAlias.php

from

file_put_contents($aliasDir.$newAliasDir.'.conf',$newConfFileContents) or die ("unable to create conf file";

to

file_put_contents($aliasDir.str_replace('/', '_', $newAliasDir).'.conf',$newConfFileContents) or die ("unable to create conf file";

now, new file .conf is named subpath1_subpath2.conf, it's works.

You are much better advised to use Virtual Hosts and not Alias's

See this post WAMPServer 2.5 The Homepage, Your Projects Menu and the need for Virtual Hosts

This was written for WAMPServer 2.5 but is relevant to any version of WAMPServer or Apache.

Yes, I use virtual host too, but it does not mean that there was no error in file addAlias.php
