I configured Virtual hosts to host that dowmain up there and localhost and local host works fine the domain does not. ) ;

My code for that is Here

NameVirtualHost *:80


<Directory d:/users/>
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
</Directory>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
ServerAdmin admin@localhost
DocumentRoot "d:/xampp/htdocs"
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@obsidianmirage.com
DocumentRoot D:/users/obsidianmirage.com/public_html
ServerName www.obsidianmirage.com
ServerAlias obsidianmirage.com
ErrorLog D:/users/obsidianmirage.com/logs/error.log
CustomLog D:/users/obsidianmirage.com/logs/access.log common

I received a great deal of help from this page: http://myblogit.net/2007/06/26/4-steps- ... n-windows/

In your hosts file, put in:

Code: Select all

127.0.0.1        obsidianmirage.com
127.0.0.1    www.obsidianmirage.com

In the httpd-vhosts.conf file, put in:

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName     www.obsidianmirage.com
ServerAlias        obsidianmirage.com
ServerAdmin    yourname@obsidianmirage.com
DocumentRoot   d:/users/obsidianmirage.com/public_html

ErrorLog     d:/users/obsidianmirage.com/logs/error.log
CustomLog    d:/users/obsidianmirage.com/logs/access.log common

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

<Directory   d:/users/obsidianmirage.com/public_html >
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

<IfModule alias_module>
ScriptAlias /cgi/ d:/users/obsidianmirage.com/cgi/
</IfModule>

<Directory   d:/users/obsidianmirage.com/cgi >
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

</VirtualHost>


Then use the XAMPP Control Panel Application to stop the apache server, refresh it, and restart the application. Then try logging into your website by the direct url, "http://www.obsidianmirage.com".

Note that this will also allow you to have links in your web forms that look like this:

Code: Select all

<form method="post" action="/cgi/yourscript.cgi">

and thus the HTML code you use on your development computer can be copied to the live, production server as-is, without changing anything.

Hope this helps, and let us know how it works for you. It does seem to work for me.
