VirtualHosts ?

[tamamanquitaime]

Hello everybody,

First please excuse my english,

I'm trying to be the webmaster of the website of my institute, as noone was able to do that. Of course I'm rather ignorant in configuring Apache.

Actually, I run Apache by Xammp on an Ubuntu Hoary. I have an IP adress, and two aliases for this IP.


I thought I had found what was to be done : use the directive "VirtualHost". I found a few explanations telling me how to edit the Apache files. The problem is that those files do not exist on my system, since I have used Xammp.

Could anyone tell me how to do this ? Thanks a lot

I found a few explanations telling me how to edit the Apache files. The problem is that those files do not exist on my system, since I have used Xammp.

Which files don't exists?

For example :

/etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/Vhosts.conf

I tried to find it in /opt/lampp/etc/, but that ain't there. The problem is that this file does not exist even on my personal computer, on which Apache was installed the classical way (apt-get install apache-common). I just don't know Apache well enough to guess if the configuration I read about was typical or not, if my installation is not standard or whatever.

I tried to modify /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf uncommenting the lines in <VirtualHosts> and modifying them, but that just doesn't work : after doing this, any access would lead me to the geom/ dir...

Mybe should I try to add two virtualhosts, one for igat and the other one for geom ?

Thanks again

I tried to modify /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf

This is the correct configuration file.

Here you can find an example how to configure a vhost:

And don't forgett the official Apache manual...
