What ports are you listening on? What does your apache error log say? The error log will usually let you know if you have a syntax error.

Here is my sample vhost test setup you can use as a reference:

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"
    ServerName localhost
    ServerAlias localhost
    ErrorLog "logs/localhost-error.log"
    CustomLog "logs/localhost-access.log" common
    <Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs">
        Require all granted
        AllowOverride All
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@test1.com
    DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/vhosts/test1"
    ServerName test1.com
    ServerAlias test1.com
    ErrorLog "logs/test1.com-error.log"
    CustomLog "logs/test1.com-access.log" common
    <Directory "C:/xampp/vhosts/test1">
        Require all granted
        AllowOverride All
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@test2.com
    DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/vhosts/test2"
    ServerName test2.com
    ServerAlias test2.com
    ErrorLog "logs/test2.com-error.log"
    CustomLog "logs/test2.com-access.log" common
    <Directory "C:/xampp/vhosts/test2">
        Require all granted
        AllowOverride All
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Both my test1.com and test2.com have entries in the Windows hosts file in addition to the existing localhost entry.
