Hello, I'm hoping I'm not posting this in a place or a way that will offend as I only came across these forums this morning via google while looking for groups that may be able to help with a problem I am encountering. This is a fairly long post, and I apologize for that but a lot of it is code excerpts that are probably familiar to anyone who's worked with the HTTPD.conf file for Apache. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's the situation: I've been using WAMP problem free for a couple of years now, across a couple of different platforms and been very happy with it. Recently, I've had to install some other apps that are listening to port 80 and ideally don't want to disable them whenever I'm doing web development, so I'm experimenting with alternate ports. I've gotten 127.0.0.1:8888 working correctly using the advice on this url: [www.tivohelp.com] however, I can't seem to get localhost working correctly; I'm getting a 404 if I call it as localhost and Forbidden if I call it as localhost:8888. I have tried 2 different versions of the localhost directives, one referencing port 8888 in the allow from, and one ignoring it. The one referencing the port will not allow Apache to start so I'm going to assume we can go without it. Here's the relevant section of my http.conf ServerName localhost:8888 # # DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your # documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but # symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations. # DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/" # # Each directory to which Apache has access can be configured with respect # to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that # directory (and its subdirectories). # # First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of # features. # <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order deny,allow Deny from all </Directory> # # Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow # particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as # you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it # below. # # # This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to. # <Directory "c:/wamp/www/"> # # Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All", # or any combination of: # Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews # # Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All" # doesn't give it to you. # # The Options directive is both complicated and important. Please see # [httpd.apache.org] # for more information. # Options Indexes FollowSymLinks # # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files. # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords: # Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit # AllowOverride all # # Controls who can get stuff from this server. # # onlineoffline tag - don't remove Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 # Allow from 127.0.0.1:8888 </Directory> Ideally, once I have localhost:8888 working correctly I need to get 2 more Vhosts running. This is the essential part as I'm using Zend for development and have all of my zend assets in two vhost directories. The old configuration had the following entries in my hosts file: 127.0.0.1 ct.local 127.0.0.1 km.local and Matching Vhosts in http.conf. However, I've removed the vhosts for now as I don't want to muddy the waters on this part. I believe the directives should look like: <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot "C:\Users\Public\Documents\CT" ServerName ct.local AllowOverride all Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 </VirtualHost> Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Alternate-Ports-and-Virtual-Directories-tp33465842p33465842.html Sent from the Apache HTTP Server - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
