VIrtualHost: Different hosts point to the same location - apache

Question

I am trying to set virtual hosts for two Zend Framework applications. I started by changing the system32 hosts file.
It contains the following lines now:
127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 quickstart
After that, I proceeded with changing the httpd-vhosts.conf file. Its current content:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin postmaster#dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "G:\workspace\Andrew\ProjManer\public"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias localhost
ErrorLog "logs/localhost-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/localhost-access.log" combined
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin postmaster#dummy-host2.localhost
DocumentRoot "G:\workspace\Andrew\quickstart\public"
ServerName quickstart
ServerAlias quickstart
ErrorLog "logs/quickstart-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/quickstart-access.log" combined
</VirtualHost>
If I don't add the virtual host with localhost first, I get a "Access forbidden 403 Error message".
The problem now is that both point to the same location, the localhost. How am I supposed to get the second virtual host working? I used the flushdns also.

You don't need the ServerAlias in them unless you want say quickstart2 to go to quickstart. In that case you will do ServerAlias quickstart2. You get access forbidden because your document root in your httpd.conf doesn't have an index.php or that virtualhost doesn't have an index.php and you have -Indexes set
Other than that the virtualhost and hosts file look fine. Try restarting your browser and restarting apache.
