WampServer

Hi there,

I'm currently running a website on my localhost, but
i need to test the inner url's of the site.
Also by putting the site files in different directories, etc.
to avoid problems when i put it live.

So here's the question:
how do i change the 'http://localhost' to something like 'http://www.testdomain.com'.

Kind regards:-)

You need to setup Access, DNS, and VH; Access for permission to connect to your Wamp PC, DNS to tie domain(s) to your Wamp PC, and VH to host multiple domains/websites and even you have only 1 domain/IP, you should use VH to set it up w/ the site you want to show up first on top and localhost on bottom and others in middle if having more than 1 site; then you can access locally w/ 'http://site'; if dont have real domain, just skip DNS guide

To setup Access, follow this

Change your windows hosts file and add [www.testdomain.com] to relate to your localhost IP 127.0.0.1

Also change apache's httpd.conf and set ServerName and/or ServerAlias
