Hi,

It is an error in the verification procedure if the only declared VirtualHost is "localhost". There is no more error if there is at least a second VirtualHost.
Will be corrected in the 3.1.1 update.

Hello Otomatic,

Thank you for clearing this up for me!
Everything else is working great.

I plan to develop / replace a .com I have on Hostmaster using WordPress locally and hopefully move it live to Hostmaster. I have a steep learning curve, but the installation of WampServer was smooth with all the help and documents posted here.

Thank you!
Tom
