VirtualHosts

[Yana]

I can't set Virtual Hosts in windows XP...
I had Apache 1.32.... on win Me. Now I have changed system to XP and download Wampp. So I copied Virtual hosts from old httpd.conf. It doesn't work.
Help me please!!!

Dear Yana,

could you please post your <VirtualHost> container? It would be much easier for us to find the error.

NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.4
<VirtualHost xenodohos>
ServerName xenodohos
ServerAdmin aaa@xenodohos.gr
DocumentRoot "E:/users/xenodohos/www"
ErrorLog "E:/users/xenodohos/error.log"
CustomLog E:/users/xenodohos/access_log common
</VirtualHost>

Did you try going at ..Wampp2\apache\bin\ and at a command prompt typing the following?
apache -S
That should diagnose if something of your VirtualHost is badly written...
The worst is when it says that..."Syntax Ok" , right?
Hope it helps!

Dear Yana!

Your config looks fine. Did the hostname xenodohos resolves to 127.0.0.4? Please call ping xenodohos at your command prompt. You should see something like this:

Code: Select all

C:\>ping xenodohos

I understood there is a problem to find "hosts" file in Windows XP. Apache server says: Cannot resolve host name xenodohos --- ignoring!

[Oswald]

Dear Yana!

You should find you hosts file under c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\

Try to insert the following line to this file

127.0.0.4 xenodohos

And start Apache again.

Good luck,
Oswald

Thank you VERY MUCH!!! It was my fault. I have made an error in hosts file. And so I had an idea it's a wrong file...

Sorry
