Apache Friends Support Forum

Dear Friends,
I have created 2 sub-domin on my name server. And forward these to my OWN server(public ip). Now I have to configure my Local Server for virtual hosting.
My subdomins are:
a) opinion.dscebd.org ---> need to forward to "d:\xamp\htdocs\dsceopn"
b) library.dscebd.org ---> need to forward to "d:\xamp\htdocs\dsce"

I have already edited 3 following files as per different examples. Also add the code of these files here. But virtual hosting is not working.
1) host (sytem32) 2) httpd.conf (apache) 3) httpd-vhost.conf (apache)
Please help me to configure these files.

File#1) HOST FILE: (Location: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\host)

Code: Select all

#   127.0.0.1       localhost
127.0.0.1 opinion.dscebd.org
127.0.0.1 library.dscebd.org

File# 2) httpd.conf (location: D:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf)

Code: Select all

#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
Listen 80
ServerName localhost:80
 #ServerName 180.234.212.27:80                                // My Server Real IP
#ServerName 192.168.2.11:80                                   // My server's Local IP

DocumentRoot "D:/xampp/htdocs"
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
</Directory>

# Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf   

File# 3) httpd-vhosts.conf (location: D:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf)

Code: Select all

    DocumentRoot D:\xampp\htdocs
</VirtualHost>

## My 1st Domain(sub-domain) ##
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName library.dscebd.org
    ServerAlias http://library.dscebd.org/
    DocumentRoot "D:\xampp\htdocs\dsce"
</VirtualHost>

## My 2nd Domain(sub-domain) ##

    ServerName opinion.dscebd.org/
    ServerAlias http://opinion.dscebd.org
    DocumentRoot "D:\xampp\htdocs\dsceopn"
</VirtualHost>

Hi obayda1757,

ServerName and ServerAlias should not contain any information about protocol, slashes, subdirectories, etc.

best wishes,

But my "word press sites" links are not working

You can easily check the problem from live
site link: http://opinion.dscebd.org/

live environment & third party application
=> [INFO] How to not fail getting help here (section "Scope of support")

It seems, that you installed WordPress under localhost, then created subdomain opinion.dscebd.org and finally moved your existing WordPress Installation from localhost to opinion.dscebd.org.

THIS DOES NOT WORK!!

You have to create all subdomains and folders first and finally you have to install WordPress into the desired subdomain and provide the appropriate informations into the WordPress Installer Dialog. You cannot move an existing WordPress Installation from one domain to another.

You can, but you have to know what to change

--- was mir natürlich auch klar ist, aber das schafft obydaya1757 mit absoluter Sicherheit erst Recht nicht. Außerdem ist sein Server nackt bis zum geht nicht mehr, er hat wirklich Xampp im Originalzustand dort installiert (ich kann problemlos die Xampp Adminoberfläche aufrufen).

Ich schreibe das alles bewusst auf Deutsch, weil mir obydaya157 zum einen natürlich Leid tut, zum anderen muss man (= Du .....) ihm beibringen, dass man Xampp nicht einfach so Online einsetzen kann. Im Moment kann man mit ein wenig Phantasie (und sehr viel braucht man wirklich nicht) auf die Xampp Adminoberfläche (inkl. MySQL mit "root" ohne Passwort..... ) von außen zugreifen (und deswegen schreibe ich auf Deutsch, damit nicht irgendwelche Idioten das aus Versehen verstehen).

I can not recommend to follow this tutorial
