Hosts file has:

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost

I have made a clean install of wamp 3.0.6 and installed all the distributables properly. But when I create the virtual host I get the following warning (as in my PHP error log) :

[07-Jan-2017 10:02:47 UTC] PHP Warning: fopen(C:\\Windows\\system32\\drivers\\etc\\hosts): failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\wamp64\www\add_vhost.php on line 338

What to do to sort this issue?

Hi,

- 1 - Please READ (and answer) BEFORE YOU ASK A QUESTION

- 2 - See errors in php log

- 3 - Apply item 09 and Note (2) of TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS

I have updated the primary question.

Hi,

The C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file must be :

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

127.0.0.1 filebucket
::1 filebucket

Please do not edit your first post in response to the questions. No information warns that the message has been modified.

Ok, I understand that the hosts file should be like the one you stated but do I need to change it manually every time I create a new vhost? And why are the above warnings being thrown and how can I fix them for the future?

In this case, because the hosts file was not writable, you need to change it manually
