I am trying to setup virtual host for Magento, but its not working, I created magento.localhost.com.conf in the Apache2/sites-avaliable directory, this is my file :
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin magento#localhost.com
ServerName magento.localhost.com
DocumentRoot /srv/www/magento_dev/public_html
<Directory /srv/www/magento_dev/public_html/>
Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog /srv/www/magento_dev/logs/error.log
LogLevel warn
</VirtualHost>
I am following instructions from book actually ,also changed /etc/hosts file , I added 192.168.36.1 magento.localhost.com. at the end , but when I try to open the site, it says :
This webpage is not available
I enabled apache rewrite, give permission to all this folders ,basically did everything as instructions, but still not working. My os is Ubuntu 14.04, any tips ?
Follow recommendations in comments for a2ensite and for testing with a simple index.php file.
Also make sure to restart Apache.
When that works, then try with the Magento index.php file.
What you do next depends on if this is a brand new copy of Magento or a copy of a previously installed one. If it's new, you should see the setup page. Follow the instructions. If it's a copy, you will need to change the database core_config_data values relating to your website urls.
Edit:
You say
changed /etc/hosts file ,I added 192.168.36.1
On what machine did you change this? Also is your Magento running in a virtual machine on your Windows machine? And the VM machine has that IP?
Edit 2:
Also change your web server name to "Magento.mysite.com" or something like that. localhost has a special meaning! And it doesn't make sense if you are accessing a remote we server!
Check web server ip with ipconfig or ifconfig on the command prompt. Put that ip in the hosts file of the web browser machine.

I want to be able to use root-relative-paths (ex: /incl/file.php) while developing the website in XAMPP's localhost so that it will work in the same way when I upload it to a webserver. In order to do that, I've set up a Virtual Host within XAMPP. The Virtual Host works fine when I access it with absolute paths (ex: C:/xampp/htdocs/incl/file.php) or pahts without the slash (incl/file.php), but root-relative-paths (/incl/file.php) don't work at all.
I've tried many different configurations of Virtual Host set ups that I found here and on many websites and uninstalling and installing XAMPP. I've also tried to use "\" instead of "/", but the result is the same. I have Windows 10 Pro with the latest XAMPP version installed on it.
This is the Virtual Host set up I am currently employing.
In the hosts file:
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 atriero.localhost
In the httpf-vhosts.conf file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"
ServerName localhost
<Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs">
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/subdomains/site"
ServerName atriero.localhost
<Directory "C:/xampp/subdomains/site">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
As an example of root-relative-paths that are not working, in my index page I have
require "/header.php";
which is located on the "site" folder, the same where index.php is located. If I type "header.php" without the slash, it works fine.
There's also in the header.php page the following line
include_once '/includes/dbh.inc.php';
where the same issue happens, dbh.inc.php is located in the includes folder within the site folder. If I take the slash out the link works fine, but in the way it is writen, with root-relative-path, it doesn't work.
I expect that it is possible to run root-relative-paths with Virtual Host in XAMPP, I assume it would really help in the development of my website and as far as I know it would be the best way to do so.
If for some reason it isn't possible to use root-relative-paths with Virtual Host and if I have to upload my website to the server without the "\" before every path, will it be harmfull in any way to the working of my website?
Thanks in advance.

I need your help here in creating a virtual host in wampserver. In office I can create a virtual hosts but when I try to create in my laptop it doesn't work. I still can't figure out what's wrong. Here's what I did.
I copy the wordpress file in this folder. This will be the path of my project
E:\Subversion\chelle.wpblog.local
I edit the host file
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
I added it to the end of file
127.0.0.1 chelle.wpblog.local
Next is I enable the virtual host in Apache
C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.4.4\conf\httpd.conf
I uncomment this
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Next is I setup the virtual host in WAMP
C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.4.4\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf
I add this at the bottom
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName chelle.wpblog.local
ServerAlias chelle.wpblog.local
DocumentRoot "E:/Subversion/chelle.wpblog.local/"
<Directory "E:/Subversion/chelle.wpblog.local/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Last is restart wampserver and open the chelle.wpblog.local in the browser. And it doesn't display. It display only google search results.
I was installing the zend framework on my local wamp using apache server.
First go and decide what will be your domain name for the local url.
Ex->www.test_zend_tutorial.com
then go and open the file located at "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc"
hosts
write
127.0.0.1 (use one tab space) www.test_zend_tutorial.com
then go to the folder located at
D:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.17 (whatever is your version) \conf\
and open the file
httpd.conf
and search for text
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
and uncomment it by removing the # tag from the start of the line.Save the file and close it.
Now go to another folder located at
D:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.17\conf\extra
and open the file
httpd-vhosts.conf
and paste the code below at the last in this file
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
DocumentRoot "D:\wamp\www"
ServerName localhost
ErrorLog "logs/localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/localhost-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.test_zend_tutorial.com
DocumentRoot "D:\wamp\www\(your project folder name)\public"
SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV "development"
<directory "D:\wamp\www\(your project folder name)\public">
DirectoryIndex index.php
AllowOverride all
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</directory>
</VirtualHost>
and restart the wamp, now write the www.test_zend_tutorial.com in the browser and you will see the things working.
If when you use the new domain in the browser it goes to a google search or something like that then the change to your hosts file has not been recognised.
You have to either reboot after changing the hosts file or more simply run these 2 commands from a command windows ( as administrator )
net stop dnscache
net start dnscache
This will refresh windows DNS cache and pick up your hosts file changes.
It is also a good idea to ping your new domain to check it is being seen, use
ping chelle.wpblog.local
If it reports 127.0.0.1 as the ip address and 4 send and 4 receieved packet then the domain is now known to Windows, if it reports some other ip address the hosts file change has not succeeded.
Also it is a good idea when creating VHOSTS to also create one for localhost or the wamp home page will not work.
You also have old Apache 2.2 syntax (Order allow,deny allow from all) you could try using the Apache 2.4 syntax, see below
So try this
## must be first so the the wamp menu page loads
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#mail.net
DocumentRoot "D:/wamp/www"
ServerName localhost
<Directory "D:/wamp/www">
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#mail.net
ServerName chelle.wpblog.local
ServerAlias www.chelle.wpblog.local
DocumentRoot "E:/Subversion/chelle.wpblog.local"
<Directory "E:/Subversion/chelle.wpblog.local">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
In WampServer 3.0.4 you do not need to run through all those setting up.
Go to local host and under Tools area for "Add a Vertual Host" in the first time it will say turn on "Vertual Host sub menu" in wamp server settings.
To get there right click on wamp icon > go to wamp server settings > and click on Vertual Host sub menu. Then re-fresh the page and follow the setup process, you just need to provide the server name and path. It will do all the works for you.
Simple as that
Method 1:
in hosts file
127.0.0.1 mysite
::1 mysite
in C:\wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.23\conf\extra\httpd-vosts.conf file add your virtual host as follows
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mysite
DocumentRoot "<path_to_your_local_site>"
<Directory "<path_to_your_local_site>">
Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Make sure vhost configuration is enable in httpd.conf file is enabled as follows
C:\wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.23\conf\httpd.conf
# Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
After you have changed configuration as above, restart all service in wamp and load website as follows
http://mysite
your local site should open.
Method 2:
In latest versions of wamp, you can do this configuration via webpage.
Open localhost in your browser. You would see wamp welcome page.
Down below under Tools, there is option to add virtual host. click on the link which would take you to add virtual host page.
In Name of the host, enter your site name eg: mysite
Under Complete absolute path of the VirtualHost folder, enter the path of your site.
Save the config and restart all services. you should be able to open mysite with the link http://mysite
As pointed in another answer, in newer versions of wam
The answers above are overcomplicating the problem somewhat, and in fact the question is including extra information that's misleading the responders.
The clues lie in step 2 and the symptoms described in 5. The hosts file is set up but when the request is made to "blah.local", google responds. Apache is not involved.
The first step to diagnosis would be pinging blah.local and seeing that it maps correctly to 127.0.0.1. I have never (in many years as a developer) found it necessary to restart local DNS on either Windows or Linux/Mac so I would expect this to work out of the box. But if it doesn't, of course restart DNS and see that it does.
However, late versions of Chrome at least do not recognize the TLD '.local' and so when you put the URL back in the browser, it's passed on to Google as a search term. There may be a setting in your browser to tell it to handle the unsanctioned TLD, but your simplest solution would be to use a TLD that's sanctioned by W3C like '.com'.
In short, if your hosts file reads something like
127.0.0.1 local.chelle.wpblog.com
rather than
127.0.0.1 chelle.wpblog.local
everything should work.
Create the folder for your local website
Go to localhost (browser)
Click Add a Virtual Host button
Add the name of the virtual host
Add the complete absolute path
Restart DNS
I have a Django site running on ec2 instance (ubuntu) on apache2 using mod_wsgi. I have placed it in /var/www/django_project. It is Up and running without any issues. Now i want to host another site (php, mysql) on this ec2 instance only. I tried to configure my httpd.conf and added php directory with proper permissions, but I believe due to Alias setting in mod_wsgi, any request above '/' is taken up by django.
I DO NOT have any domain name. I access my Django site with IP of machine (i.e w.x.y.z/django_app).
Correct me if I am wrong : Since i do not have server name, I cannot have both site running on port 80 using virtual Hosts.
And I do not mind running them on different ports either. Please suggest me a way to host php site on this server. which file to configure and how to configure it.
My httpd.conf file:
Alias /static /var/www/resumerepo/static
<Directory /var/www/resumerepo/static>
order deny,allow
Allow From All
</Directory>
WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/resumerepo/resumerepo/wsgi.py
WSGIPythonPath /var/www/resumerepo
<Directory /var/www/resumerepo>
<Files wsgi.py>
Order deny,allow
Allow From All
</Files>
</Directory>
It works fine and my app is accessible. However if i put it in one virtual host and make another virtual host, apache restart throws an error saying PythonPath can not be in virtual host.
You can't do this easily if your django project is accessible via the root of your domain (or your IP), for example: http://1.2.3.4 -> leads to your django project`.
I think, one solution could be to move your django project to a subdirectory, like http://1.2.3.4/django, and make your php project also accessible in subdirectory, like http://1.2.3.4/php.
Or you can create a new virtual host, listening on port 8080, for example, for your php project. This way :
http://1.2.3.4 leads to your django project
http://1.2.3.4:8080 leads to your php project
The second option may be easier to set up, as you won't have to change config for your django project.
Your vhost file could look like :
<VirtualHost *:8080>
ServerAdmin contact#yourdomain
DocumentRoot /var/www/php
<Directory /var/www/php>
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow From All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Maybe this won't work : according to Apache documentation, you should not use virtual hosts without ServerName.
I installed Bitnami WAMP Stack in Windows 7 and I am trying to get my eclipse php code to run. I found a link online that said to add an alias, but that didn't work, how do I get the code to run in
http://localhost/greenmugcafe/
if my eclipse workspace is located here
C:\Users\Robert\Documents\GitHub\greenmugcafe ?
Edit: I could not find anything on doing this for Bitnami WAMP but I found a few for the Bitnami Django stack.
Any Help at all?
Your code would run from http://localhost/greenmugcafe/ if you changed the virtual host directory of localhost to C:/Users/Robert/Documents/GitHub/
Personally, I think it would be better to create a local domain called greenmugcafe.dev rather than having a folder greenmugcafe in the localhost domain.
How to setup virtual hosts in WAMP
Make sure virtual hosts have been enabled:
Edit /installdir/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
Search for line that includes httpd-vhosts.conf and uncomment it by removing the # at the start
Adding a new virtual host:
Edit the hosts file on your windows system (usually located at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\)
Add the following to the end of the hosts file 127.0.0.1 greenmugcafe.dev. This tells your computer that any url with a value of greenmugcafe.dev should be routed to 127.0.0.1 (aka localhost).
Save the hosts file and now edit this file /installdir/apache2/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Add the greenmugcafe.dev virtual host entry at the bototm of the /installdir/apache2/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf file, save, and restart the server.
Here's the code:
#greenmugcafe
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#greenmugcafe.dev
DocumentRoot "C:/Users/Robert/Documents/GitHub/greenmugcafe/"
ServerName greenmugcafe.dev
ErrorLog "logs/greenmugcafe.dev-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/greenmugcafe.dev-access.log" common
<Directory "C:/Users/Robert/Documents/GitHub/greenmugcafe/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Order Deny,Allow
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Now http://greenmugcafe.dev will point to C:/Users/Robert/Documents/GitHub/greenmugcafe/
This method will also work for other WAMP stacks like Wamp Server and XAMPP.
For a launched website on a linux server, instead of the windows host file, we would change the a record of the domain name to point to the server IP address. Then we still need to setup the virtual host so the server knows to recognise the domain name and point it to the correct folder on the server.
Hope that helps :-)
After much faffing about I got laravel to work with XAMPP. However, I can't seem to access directories in the htdocs folder via localhost now. Attempt to access a file returns Object not found! along with The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
The changes I made to get laravel working seems like a blur now. The only thing I remember doing is editing the hosts file to enable the virtual host to work by adding 127.0.0.1 laravel.dev in the hosts file (using a mac btw). I also added a virtual host to the httpd-vhost.conf file.
I did undo the above changes but it didn't make a difference.
Any thoughts on whats gone wrong?
Thanks.
Dispelling Confusion
Just thought I'd clarify what my experience is. Before installing laravel 4 I could access all my projects with localhost/someProjectName but now it fails.
I'm trying to identify what change caused this behaviour. Btw, I have no problems accessing my laravel project (my mapping allows me access to it via laravel.dev)
Look into your /etc/httpd.conf file and see if you have Virtual hosts activated.
If so, check your etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf file. You might have set up a VirtualHost already.
EDIT: I have found that once you turn on Virtual Hosts, XAMPP needs a default VirtualHost for your basic htdocs files
Try adding a default VirtualHost (at the bottom of the file) like so:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs"
<Directory "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes execCGI
AllowOverride All
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
It sounds to me like it is a problem with the way your directories are configured. Be sure to create a Virtual Host (if you're using Apache) that points to the public folder within your application directory.
For example, if your Laravel project is under /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs/Laravel then set up a Virtual Host like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs/Laravel/public
# Other directives here
</VirtualHost>
Additionaly, if you're working with PHP >= 5.4, SSH into the application folder and run
./artisan serve
(Be sure that your PHP executable is in your PATH variable). Then go localhost:8000 and you should have your application running.
Running this command runs the PHP built-in webserver and saves you the trouble of configuring virtual hosts.
In your Apache's http.conf, find the DocumentRoot line and add the subdirectory /public on the end.
Once that is done and you've restarted Apache, you'll be able to access everything which is contained within your htdocs/public folder (including subdirectories of that folder), along with any routes you've defined in Laravel.
Laravel is designed to be set up this way as to protect the code and files by not having them in the folder which is served out to the web.
I have same issue and found that there are miss configuration in vhost. So that's are correct configuration.
in etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "D:/xampp/htdocs/laravel-master/public"
ServerName laravel.local
ErrorLog "logs/laravel-master-error.log"
<Directory D:/xampp/htdocs/laravel-master/public>
AllowOverride All
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
In the hosts file
127.0.0.1 laravel.local
I don't know if you're running L4 or L3. However, launch CLI and
$ cd ./path/to/project
Then for L4:
$ php artisan serve
For L3:
$ php -S localhost:8000 -t public
Now you can go to localhost:8000 and see your application.
You're having problem because the object really doesn't exist in your htdocs directory. You don't have to append xampp after localhost or 127.0.0.1 because xampp will treat it as an object or a folder under htdocs.
if you want to access your blog, make sure you have a blog folder under htdocs and put in your URL localhost/blog
