First of all, thank you to the creators of WAMP.
Secondly, would like to know if WAMP can be used as a production server. I am interested in serving my own website with registered domain name from home. Has anyone attempted this using WAMP?

Of course, more than 1 person already did it. Here is examples:

[jlbn.com]
[test.jlbn.com]
[mail.jlbn.com]
[forum.jlbn.com]
[ftp.jlbn.com]

However, you have to do some other things to secure your sites. Good luck.

Thanks for the response...

Where can I find documentation on how to secure WAMP5 as a production server?

Thanks in advance.

He he... Actually, I'm not sure about that either. Just built it up, then if my friends and I can find a way to hack through it, we rebuild them. However, hope you can get the better answers from some other experiencers, not from a newbie like me. Good luck.

yfastud, did you set up virtual hosts for the subdomains. If yes, how did you do it. I have been trying to set up virtual hosts for different projects but I can't get it to work. See post:

Yes, of course, and very basic as follows:


listen 80

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName sub1.domain.com
DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/sub1
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName sub2.domain.com
DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/sub2
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName sub3.domain.com
DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/sub3
</VirtualHost>


However, the difference is I have a domain and dns, but you seem only use vh in localhost. If so, check this very good tutor from cyberspatium

Hope this help
