Apache Friends Support Forum

Hi,

i'm new to xampp however i already worked with apache/php/mysql.
i have some trouble testing xampp 1.7.7 under windows 7.

basically i didn't change anything to configuration files except the listening port.
instead of using 80 i use 10080.
so for that i changed httpd.conf from c:\xampp\apache\conf\ at 2 places.

Code: Select all

Listen localhost:10080
ServerName localhost:10080


when i do that and restart server, only phpMyBackupPro works when i launch http://localhost:10080
nothing more.
the standard localhost/xampp/index.php stopped to work (i get an error 404:The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.)

later i would like to setup some virtualhost as following

Code: Select all

NameVirtualHost *:10080

#--------------------------
# Test plateform Joomla 2.5
#--------------------------
<VirtualHost *:10080>
  DocumentRoot "d:/webserver/www/jtest25"
  ServerName jtest25.loc
  ServerAlias www.jtest25.loc
  ErrorLog "logs/jtest25.loc.error.log"
  CustomLog "logs/jtest25.loc.access.log" common
 
    <Directory "d:/webserver/www/jtest25/">
      AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo
      Order deny,allow
      Deny from all
      Allow from 127.0.0.1
    </Directory>
     
</VirtualHost>


all those settings work correctly under standard web server(apache/php/mysql) so i don't understand where is the problem now.
could you tell me if something special must be done ?

i searched on internet and i didn't find anything particular (i have no other services running with 10080 port)

thx.

This setting is not correct. Processes don't listen on DomainNames, but on IPs and/or ports.

Code: Select all

//wrong
Listen localhost:10080

//correct
Listen 10080

//correct
Listen 127.0.0.1:10080

I have changed my port too for testing and my orange XAMPP Administration Page works like a charme, as before.
Every HTTP 404 status error will be written to your \xampp\apache\logs\error.log file.
Take a look into this for more information.

best wishes,
