I am trying to setup the virtual host in apache web server on Ubuntu. For this I followed lot of tutorials and did exactly the same step. But could not find the reason why it is not working for me.
For Now see the following youtube tutorial:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfRJ4e8UQfQ
I followed this tutorial and did exactly the same as in video. But still when I type testdomain.com on browser it does not show any thing from local machine. Instead of it looks for Internet domain.
Do I need to entry something in host file.
Please guide to find out problem why it is not working for me on ubuntu-14.
Thanks
You need to edit your /etc/hosts file. Append 127.0.0.1 testdomain.com, save and restart the browser.

I'm facing the following issue: i've a public web server running on a given URL, say, www.mysite.com.
It uses apache2.
I've developed a python web app and I want to make it publicly accessible.
Locally, I use the command
mod_wsgi-express start-server wsgi.py
to start the server and everything works.
However, I would like to link only a specific URL to my app, such as mysite/my_test, leaving apache2 serving all the other requests.
In other words, I would like to set the server URL for mod_wsgi-express to mysite/my_test port 80.
By default I get Server URL: http://localhost:8000, and I would like to change this.
I've tried the --mount-point option, but I didn't see any difference.
I know I can change the apache configuration and adding WSGIScriptAlias but I'm facing multiple issues, so I'm searching for a quickest and easiest way.
Hope this is clear.
Thanks.
I have tried all kinds of things, read all answers, and configured the bananas out of it, but I cannot seem to get the following working:
A windows 2016 server with XAMPP, to host more websites than 1.
What have I done:
I have altered the httpd-vhosts.conf as described all over the web with allowing NameVirtualHost, and setting up virtual host with documentroot, servername etc.
I have pointed a domain with the a-record to this server
installed the latest XAMPP release to date
changed the windows hosts file, as described everywhere (127.0.0.1 domainname.com)
What works:
I can get the domain working on my server's browser. When I enter the specific domainname.com it shows the hello world page I made in the specified folder. The domain resolves and shows the page that is in de directory accordingly
Besides that, the localhost of apache is also working, I have 2 sites working, but only on the browser of the server, on the machine itself.
What does not work:
Only 1 thing. when I want to access the domain from any other machine than the server (from outside so to say), it will not work, but when I ping the domain on my home-pc it resolves to the server.
I am at a loss. Been at this for hours, and beginning to question if it is even possible.
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here, or if it is even possible to have more than 1 website to work on XAMPP and resolve form the outside?
Thank you in advance.
It was windows firewall that stopped all inbound connections. I finally figured it out!
Let's say you're trying to get a CMS up and going.
And say you're supposed to find a Start Page at "www.yourdomain.com/start"
But you don't have a domain name yet. You only have an IP address.
So you look in "yourIPaddress/start"
(Apache is visibly running at yourIPaddress)
And you don't find anything there, just a 404 page.
And the person who installed it for you tells you: "In Apache, yourdomain/start is not the same thing as yourIP/start. Please read up on Apache server configuration to figure this out. And that's all the help I can give."
My question is: what concepts (re: Apache configuration) should I read up on so that I can find the start page?
Thoughts?
If the ip address is not exclusive for your website then it might be shared by other websites. In that case searching for details about virtual hosts you should be able to get more info.
what you can do to get things working is add to the hosts file on your machine
yourIPaddress www.yourdomain.com
and you should be able to access your website's start page from www.yourdomain.com/start.
Just remember to remove the entry from your hosts file after the www.yourdomain.com actually gets pointed to your yourIPaddres by your hosting provider.
I recently installed Apache and enabled "localhost" with Windows. When I type "localhost" in my browser, it brings me to a page explaining that the Apache installation was successful. I just don't know where to find this. Is it reading some index.html file? If so, I just can't find it.
I tried going to C:\inetpub\wwwroot but the "localhost" in the browser is not reading it from this location. Where else is it reading localhost from? I use Windows 7.
This is usually found in \apache\htdocs on a Windows default install. The 'Pre-Installation' steps covered in this Apache, PHP and MySQL setup guide might be helpful.
If you use a default install of WampServer, it will be in C:\wamp\www
I am trying to learn PHP. I am having trouble getting Apache working correctly on my Vista Home Premium machine.
I have IIS7 running and I would like to have Apache running along with it. I was looking around on the web and some say that it would be fine having the two together as long as they are looking at different ports.
I left IIS looking listening on port 80 and I edited the httpd.conf file in the apache2triad/conf folder to listen on port 8080 and changed the server name to localhost:8080. When I go to localhost:8080/phpmyadmin the page that allows me to create a database looks like all the page styling is off so I know that something is already wonky.
I enter a database name and click the Create button, then receive a 404 error from IIS. It says that it is looking for a file at:
Requested URL:
http://localhost:80/phpmyadmin/db_create.php
Physical Path:
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\phpmyadmin\db_create.php
It's pointing to my inetpub folder but all of my PHP stuff is in the c:\apache2triad folder.
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks.
If you want to get a URL from your Apache server, you need to use port 8080 instead of port 80 (which is where you say IIS is running) - so your URL should be http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin/db_create.php
As Shawn said, if you're not familiar with apache at all, you're probably better off setting up PHP under IIS - see http://www.php.net/install.windows
