WampServer

Hello
How can I solve (and remove) the following error in apache_error_log :

access_compat_error - AH01797 : client denied by server configuration c:/wamp/www/favicon.ico

(I'm using Wamp 2.4/ Apache 2.4.4 Win 32 on a XP SP3 machine)

I created an alias. So I never access to wamp main 'www' directory, but only to my alias [<my] ip>/<myalias>/

So why apache is trying to get access to main 'www/favicon.ico' ?

And I don't want to give external access to that main Wamp 'www' since I don't need it ?

And I was not able to find a directive to ask Apache to not search this favicon.ico or to not log this error that increases uselessly the apache error log file.

Thanks

Hi,

Do not use an alias, which necessarily goes through "localhost". For all your local sites, use VirtualHost, as with all hosting providers.
See The need for Virtual Host
