Multiple Virtual Hosts; XAMPP 1.68

I'm trying to use my home machine as a production machine and going to be pointing local.WhateverWebSiteImWorking.com to the directory in my clients folder.

I've got XAMPP installed and running mostly fine. The httpd.conf file is already setup to allow the use of httpd-vhosts.conf file so I've modified my vhosts file to look like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin bigmike@bigmikes.org
	DocumentRoot "d:/clients/misc/jim barnett/web"
	ServerName local.jimbarnettconsulting.com
	<Directory "d:/clients/misc/jim barnett/web">
		AllowOverride None
		Options None
		Order allow,deny
		Allow from all
	</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin bigmike@bigmikes.org
	DocumentRoot "d:/clients/misc/mad cornhole skills/web"
	ServerName local.madcornholeskills.com
	<Directory "d:/clients/misc/mad cornhole skills/web">
		AllowOverride None
		Options None
		Order allow,deny
		Allow from all
	</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin bigmike@bigmikes.org
	DocumentRoot "d:/clients/misc/mad donkey skills/web"
	ServerName local.maddonkeyskills.com
	<Directory "d:/clients/misc/mad donkey skills/web">
		AllowOverride None
		Options None
		Order allow,deny
		Allow from all
	</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Code (markup):

Of course, I also have my hosts file pointing all three references of local.whatever.com to 127.0.0.1.

I've set this up similarly at work, although not using XAMPP; installing all the components separately, and I don't believe I've done anything differently but all requests to local.madcornholeskills.com and maddonkeyskills.com are being served by local.jimbarnettconsulting.com.

What did I miss?

Thanks,

Mike

 

Did you restart Apache after the change?

 

Yes, I restarted it via the XAMPP control panel.

 

Please downlaod this and see my configed files, you can understand where you are wrong. i'm using this package:
http://rapidshare.com/files/138757703/webserver_paketi_www.senarama.com.part1.rar
http://rapidshare.com/files/138759731/webserver_paketi_www.senarama.com.part2.rar

my working sites in xampp:
www.dosyasitesi.com
www.filmpaylasimi.com
www.plansitesi.com
www.senarama.com

 

I got it working with this code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerName local.jimbarnettconsulting.com
	DocumentRoot "d:/clients/misc/jim barnett/web"
	<Directory />
		Options FollowSymLinks
		AllowOverride None
		Options None
		Order allow,deny
		Allow from all
		Satisfy all
	</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

But I also neglected to uncomment the NameVirtualHost *:80 line

XAMPP doesn't like to start and stop Apache. It seems after some changes to the conf files I need to reboot my machine.

Thanks,

Mike

 

Hey, if you click stop, you must stop apache also progress manager(ctrl+Alt+Delete). Because, apache is hardworking progress and can't be stopped by xampp panel.

 

That's kinda dumb that XAMPP would have a STOP button that doesn't work...

 

Here is a guide I wrote with more details on this subject...

renownedmedia, good guide, though

 

Thanks, sevmax, I'm glad I could help you out!

 

Thanks! you saved me.
