WampServer

Hello folks.

First off, here is my specs:

Windows 7 64 bit
WAMP 2.5 64 bit

I like the way you all have set up the new 2.5 with needing virtual hosts. I have created 2 new virtual hosts and they work great if browsing them on the net.

Now the issue is, I have turned on Virtual hosts in the menu. I shut down and restarted the dns cache and restarted WAMP and tah dah! The Virtual host menu appears.

Now the issue is when I click on one of my virtual hosts in the menu, it shows my project folder name in my url bar and then redirects to a website that is not mine. It is similar in name, but not mine.

For example, I click on my virtual host called midwest. I then get redirected to midwest.com instead of my virtaul host called midwestva.cf which is a fully qualified domain.

The same exact thing happens if I click on a name in the My Projects menu.


I have checked my virtual hosts definitions and they are correct, I checked my hosts file and they are correct in there as well. SO I am not sure why I am pulling up other peoples websites and not mine.


And once again, I like the new changes. It just taking me a minute to get used to it all. Thanks for all the hard work you folks put in to WAMp server project.

read this, it should get you sorted.

It sounds like you forgot to add your domain names into the HOSTS file.

Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.

That is the exact tutorial that I followed. I 100% am sure and I just double checked. I did add the domains to my hosts file.

And still redirects to the wrong domains.

Show us your HOSTS file please.

My apologies.

I should have came back and edited this and let you know I rolled back to WAMP 2.2 for the time being due to circumstances beyond my control.

I look forward to coming back to 2.5 in the very near future.
