I have installed wamp a handful of times, and have it working on my local environment. Currently I am attempting to resolve an issue on a server of mine which is running wamp. I uninstalled a working copy, and now when I attempted to reinstall I have been unsuccessful. I have changed the port to be 8080 and have configured the httpf.config to do so.
ServerName 50.56.176.95:8080
ServerRoot "C:/wamp/bin/apache/apache2.4.9"
Listen 50.56.176.95:8080
<virtualHost *:8080>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/Hi"
ServerName 50.56.176.95
</virtualHost>
<virtualHost *:8080>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/Hi"
ServerName 50.56.176.95
<directory "c:/wamp/www/Hi">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</directory>
</virtualHost>
Wamp turns on and apache and php start up, however if I attempt o access 50.56.176.96:8080 I will get a 404 error.
Something to note is that everything is commented out in the htacces file in the www directory.
Should the ServerName not actually be a name and not an ip address?
Also you are using Apache 2.2 and Apache 2.4 access control syntax in the same VH def? As you are using Apache 2.4 it may be best to stick to 2.4 syntax.
So maybe this will work :-
<VirtualHost *:8080>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/Hi"
ServerName hi.com
ServerAlias www.hi.com
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/Hi">
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Im on windows 10, trying to customize an url to use Laravel. I dont want to acess the url using public folder on it. Im using wamp and apache is running on port 8080. So I edit the file wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.23\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/laravel_test/blog/public
ServerName laravel_test.dev
</VirtualHost>
After that, I edit the file system32/drivers/etc/hosts with:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 laravel_test.dev
And when I access the url laravel_test.dev it doesnt work. I tried to use this too on httpd-vhosts.conf:
<VirtualHost *:8080>
And it doesnt work either. I always restart the service on wamp, and nothing changes.
I couldnt install and configure the homestead properly, so im trying to use wamp now. Can somebody help me?
In your httpd.conf file you need to uncomment the virtual Hosts section
Then,
Your vhost needs to listen on port 8080
<VirtualHost *:8080>
ServerName laraveltest.dev
ServerAlias www.laraveltest.dev
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/laravel_test/blog/public
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/laravel_test/blog/public">
AllowOverride All
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
For your hosts file
127.0.0.1 laraveltest.dev www.laraveltest.dev
I just started learning php and I am trying to host locally my own php website by using XAMPP.
I wanted to create virtual host with:
URL: myphpwebsite.local
Port: 8088
But when I attempted to access this website through the browser I got a:
Not Found
HTTP Error 404. The requested resource is not found.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
My httpd-vhosts.conf
NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8088
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8088>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost myphpwebsite.local>
DocumentRoot "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite"
ServerName myphpwebsite.local
ErrorLog "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite/logs/myphpwebsite.local.error.log"
CustomLog "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite/logs/myphpwebsite.local.custom.log" combined
<Directory "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
And my C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 myphpwebsite.local
Any help would be appreciated!
make sure there's file/htaccess/index or whatever in directory you want to open, 404 may comes from that ;)
try using one below, eventually replace your port:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite"
ServerName myphpwebsite.local
</VirtualHost>
the question is your Apache running/serving on port 8088?
For example my xamp is running on 80 and 443...
xamp control panel is very handy, it has nice logs button that will open your log files to show you php and apache errors etc. check it out.
Try going with default port, if it works it means that you need to play with ports if you really want to.
just a quick tip, .com is shorter than .local and if you're using chrome and it works like mine then most of the time something.local will redirect you to google search (and I like my search there, you can switch it off ;))
I don't know if I am much help, but using WAMP, here are my settings. I am listening on port 80, I use 8080 for my tomcat server.
hosts file
127.0.0.1 local.mysite.com
httpd-vhosts.conf
#
# Use name-based virtual hosting.
#
NameVirtualHost *:80
....
<Directory "c:/wamp/www">
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www"
</VirtualHost>
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/path/to/site/root">
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName local.mysite.com
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/path/to/site/root"
ServerAdmin me#email.com
ProxyPreserveHost Off
RewriteEngine On
AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode
#AllowEncodedSlashes On
ErrorLog "c:/wamp/www/path/to/logs/error.log"
CustomLog "c:/wamp/www/path/to/logs/access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
....
Then I can access my local site like this: http://local.mysite.com
Hope this helps...
The NameVirtualHost directive needs to match the value of VirtualHost exactly, and you need to specify the port in each instance. If you want to use port 8088 for myphpwebsite.local, you'd need to do:
NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8088
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8088>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8088>
DocumentRoot "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite"
ServerName myphpwebsite.local
ErrorLog "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite/logs/myphpwebsite.local.error.log"
CustomLog "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite/logs/myphpwebsite.local.custom.log" combined
<Directory "C:/Microsoft/Workspace/myphpwebsite">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Notice the VirtualHost opening tags are identical; it's the ServerName value that actually tells Apache which domain this particular directive applies to. Restart your server after making the changes. Check out this page for more information: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/name-based.html
Hope this helps!
Make sure that the port you are using is not being used by another service.
This problem has been bugging me for days and I really need an answer.
I have a previous WAMP server in which I have configured properly so I can set up virtual hosts for applications that I build. It served me well for months.
Recently, there's this software, in which I think is a Malware, that run in my pc. The software was removed and I scanned the pc and there were no viruses.
I re-installed WAMP server and configured it again. It went well but the virtual hosts are not behaving properly.
These are what I have declared:
In httpd-vhost:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin #removed
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/Thesis"
ServerName pixtcha.dev
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/Thesis">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Order Deny,Allow
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin #removed
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/mvc-pe-system/web"
ServerName copers.com
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/mvc-pe-system/web">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Order Deny,Allow
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
In my hosts file:
127.0.0.1 pixtcha.dev
127.0.0.1 copers.com
The thing is, I am able to access the pixtcha.dev properly and there were no problems, while the copers.com is inaccessible, when I type it, it redirects me to some website from the web. I just don't understand why this happens. I even tried flushing the dns if there were corrupted local files but I just can't figure it out.
Also, I have tried using the server names from my previous virtual host and they are all inaccessible too. They are giving me:
http://copers.edu.ph is not available
So I resorted to using new server names, but I don't understand why can't I use the previous server names from my previous WAMP configuration. :(
What do you think are the problems? And how to solve them?
Please help. Thanks in advance.
Ok a couple of things that might help here.
As Apache 2.4 is IPV4 and IPV6 aware you need to change your HOSTS file like this so if the browser decides to use IPV6 it knows where to find your domains. I wish I knew what controls the broswers decision, but I dont.
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 pixtcha.dev
127.0.0.1 copers.com
::1 localhost
::1 pixtcha.dev
::1 copers.com
Dont forget to restart the dnscache or reboot after changing this file.
From a command windows, started using the 'Run as Administrator' option, do these 2 commands to restart the dnscache.
net stop dnscache
net start dnscache
Also when you create Virtual Hosts the default host, as defined in httpd.conf, is ignored, so you need to add a VHOST definition for localhost.
Also you are using old Apache 2.2 syntax in your VHOST definitions, incorrectly as well as it happens, and this should be changed to Apache 2.4 syntax
Also it is better to stick to lower case for directory names, Windows does not care but if you ever move code to a Unix live server it may cause confusion.
# Should be the first VHOST definition so that it is the default virtual host
# Also access rights should remain restricted to the local PC and the local network
# So that any random ip address attack will recieve an error code and not gain access
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias localhost

Check and make sure that your scripts (PHP?) in your copers.com root (index.php?) are not redirecting to these outside URLs, or to URLs further inside your local site that would redirect outside as well.
Also in Chrome, you can open the Network tab of Developer Tools to see what actual web requests are being made, and in what order.
I am using a wamp version 2.5
My Apache is 2.4.9
PHP: 5.5.12
MySQL: 5.6.17
I have these configurations:
On my httpd.conf
# Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
On my G:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.9\conf\extra\httpd-vhost.conf
# Virtual Hosts
#
# Required modules: mod_log_config
# If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your
# machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations
# use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn't need to worry about
# IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below.
#
# Please see the documentation at
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/>
# for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts.
#
# You may use the command line option '-S' to verify your virtual host
# configuration.
#
#
# VirtualHost example:
# Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container.
# The first VirtualHost section is used for all requests that do not
# match a ServerName or ServerAlias in any <VirtualHost> block.

I try to access my project using this URL: http://www.mysite.dev/ BUT I am getting a Server not found error I tried accessing it using www.mysite.dev , http://mysite.dev but still having a bad luck!
My virtual host was working before but i'm not sure why it wasn't working now. Some weird stuff going on.
I am not sure what's happening. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
First you need to remove the example dummy definitions from your vhost-httpd.conf file. They are there as examples only just to get you started with the syntax, and should not remain in an active conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf as they are pointing to non existant folders.
So remove these 2 definitions from the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#dummy-host.example.com
DocumentRoot "g:/Apache24/docs/dummy-host.example.com"
ServerName dummy-host.example.com
ServerAlias www.dummy-host.example.com
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#dummy-host2.example.com
DocumentRoot "g:/Apache24/docs/dummy-host2.example.com"
ServerName dummy-host2.example.com
ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
Second Apache 2.4.x is IPV4 ( 127.0.0.1 ) and IPV6 (::1) aware so your hosts file should look like this with definitions for both IPV4 and IPV6 versions for each site. The browser can arbitrarily use either so you need both but will probably use the IPV6 network in preference to the IPV4 if both are actually active on your PC.
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 mysite.dev
::1 mysite.dev
Now on the 2 Virtual Hosts that actually exist on your system try this as the Virtual Host definition :
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "g:/wamp/www"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias localhost
ErrorLog "logs/localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/localhost-access.log" common
<Directory "G:/wamp/www">
AllowOverride All
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "g:\wamp\www\mysite\public"
ServerName mysite.dev
ServerAlias www.mysite.dev
ErrorLog "logs/mysite-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/mysite-access.log" common
<Directory "G:/wamp/www/mysite/public">
AllowOverride All
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
The <Directory>....</Directory> section within the <VirtualHost>....</VirtualHost> section tells Apache which IP Addresses it is allowed to accept connections from, so using the Apache 2.4 syntax Require local limits access so that only the PC running WAMPServer i.e. Apache can connect to any of these site.
Avoid mixing Apache 2.2 syntax and Apache 2.4 syntax together in the same definition. So dont use
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
and
Require all granted
in the same definition. You are using Apache 2.4 so use the Apache 2.4 syntax.
If you find you want to allow other PC's inside your local network to see you site i.e. work mate or the kids etc, you can add this syntax to one or more of your Virtual Host definition.
Allow just a single other PC into your site
Require local
Require ip 192.168.1.100
or 2 other PC's
Require local
Require ip 192.168.1.100, 192.168.1.101
Or to anyone on your local network just use the first 3 of the 4 quartiles of the ip address.
Require ip 192.168.1
Also avoid using the syntax that allows access from anywhere i.e.
Require all granted <--Apache 2.4 syntax
or
Order Allow,Deny <-- Apache 2.2 syntax
Allow from all
It may solve your issues in the short term, but is just waiting to catch you sometime later when you decide you want to show your site to a friend/client/boss. If you get to the stage of Port Forwarding you router so that the world is allowed into your network that would cause ALL OF YOUR SITES to become available to the world.
Better to change the ONE Virtual Host Definition for the ONE site you want people to see for testing/bragging from Require local to Require all granted and only allow that single site to be access from the internet.
Once you have made all these changes remember to restart Apache.
Also if you change the hosts file to make the chnages active you should either reboot or run these command from the command line of a command windows started ising the Runs as Administrator option.
net stop dnscache
net start dnscache
If you are using Windows 10 the above dns commands no longer work, you should do this instead.
ipconfig /flushdns
Due to Google acquiring .dev gTLD, having .dev development sites is no longer easily possible, best way to mitigate is to just rename your development domain into .local or something that you prefer.
What happens in the background is that the local DNS server redirects the browser to 127.0.53.53 (open cmd > nslookup yourdomain.dev) in order to inform end-users of .dev gTLD being acquired. Since the .dev domain in hosts file is set to 127.0.0.1 it shows connection refused.
You can change 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.53.53 in the hosts file and see that the browser error changes from ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED to ERR_ICANN_NAME_COLLISION.
Following is working for me
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "G:\project\test.dev"
ServerAdmin test#gmail.com
ServerName test.dev
ErrorLog "logs/test.dev-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/test.dev-access.log" common
<Directory "G:\project\test.dev">
AllowOverride All
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I fix the same problem by uncomment some lines in httpd.conf in Apache folder.
Uncomment lines below:
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
LoadModule vhost_alias_module modules/mod_vhost_alias.so
Save file and Restart your Apache and it will work.
Many thanks to this guy:
https://john-dugan.com/wamp-vhost-setup/
I am coming very late to this question, I did all what was mentioned by #RiggsFolly but one thing I changed made it to work instantly. I changed .dev to .test as .dev is reserved. hope this helps
Check out this modules uncommented in httpd.conf
proxy_module
proxy_http_module
try this on you apache httpd.config file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mysite.dev
DocumentRoot "g:\wamp\www\mysite\public"
SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV "development"
<Directory "g:\wamp\www\mysite\public">
DirectoryIndex index.php
Options All Includes Indexes
Options All Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
restart your wamp server and put url like mysite.dev/ on you browser.
hope it will help you.
thank you.
I am trying to install magento on a virtual host in my system running with XAMPP
I have done following till now :
Added lines in the hosts file under windows/system32/driver/host
192.168.1.69 magento2.hue
192.168.1.69 www.magento2.hue
Then added code in httpd-vhosts.conf in XAMPP folder
NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.69:80
<VirtualHost magento2.hue>
ServerAdmin magento2.hue
DocumentRoot "C:/www/mag_domain2/httpdocs/"
ServerName magento2.hue
ServerAlias www.magento2.hue
ErrorLog "C:/www/mag_domain2/httpdocs/error.log"
CustomLog "C:/www/mag_domain2/httpdocs/access.log" combined
<Directory "C:/www/mag_domain2/httpdocs">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Restarted Apache and Mysql, but the site i.e magento2.hue is not loading.
Can you please figure out if i am doing something wrong here ?
try with below httpd.conf setting it working at my end
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "D:/xampp/htdocs/yourmagentosetup"
ServerName magento2.hue
</VirtualHost>
hope this will sure work for you.
Oh my,
I just figure it out.. i have previously added another vhost which points to 192.168.1.59 and is working fine
I just needed to point new one to the same IP and change the ServerName to magento2.hue instead of magento.hue as was of previous one.
it works now.
Thanks liyakat and Arjun for viewing this question.
