Wamp vhost docroot always shows as c:\wamp\www not the vhost docroot

I have tried dozens of guides and read ton of information but I still can't find a fix for my problem. I have uninstalled, reinstalled and checked and double checked every possible issue.

The problem remains. No matter what change I make, document root ALWAYS show up as c:\wamp\www.

Even if I change the httpd.conf DocumentRoot to another path it still shows up as c:\wamp\www

What is strange is if the vhost was set up wrong, my index.php should not display. But in fact it does. And I have a line of code to echo the $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] and it ALWAYS shows as c:\wamp\www and not to ANY of the vhosts document roots I have assigned.

So the pages load, of course with errors. My pages ALL reference $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] and ALL work perfectly on my live sites.

So the bottom line is I have checked my configs backwards and forwards. / vs. \, hosts file is correct, document root paths are correct and point to actual folders that contain the correct files. I have played with every "standard" and non-standard possibility of config.

There must be some other element that's keeping this from working. Please help if you can.

Please don't suggest I try another config. I have tried them all.

Pleas开发者_如何学Ce tell me you know why this is happening and how to fix it. I have on script that almost did the trick but feel just short of the fix. I left a message for the poster and have not heard back from him.

I hope somebody here has a fix and not a suggestion to try yet another config. Unless you KNOW of the issue and have a fix, please don't reply. That might sound rude, but I have seen and tried all the configs.

NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
   DocumentRoot C:\wamp\www\itsaboutwirelessnetworks
   ServerName itsaboutwirelessnetworks.localhost
   ServerAlias itsaboutwirelessnetworks
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
   DocumentRoot C:\wamp\www\computerstore
   ServerName computerstore.localhost
   ServerAlias computerstore
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
  DocumentRoot C:\wamp\www
  ServerName localhost
   ServerAlias localhost
</VirtualHost>

Is the config. Why can't I edit with carriage returns in comments?

in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts add this line:

127.0.0.1 computerstore.local

in httpd.conf, make sure this line is uncommented:

Include "conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf"

(this should point to where your vhosts file is)

your httpd-vhosts.conf file should contain this:

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot              C:\wamp\www
    ServerName                127.0.0.1
    ServerAlias               localhost
    SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV    development
    SetEnv APPLICATION_DOMAIN localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot              C:\wamp\www\conputerstore
    ServerName                computerstore.local
    ServerAlias               computerstore.local
    SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV    development
    SetEnv APPLICATION_DOMAIN computerstore.local
</VirtualHost>

If WAMP refuses to load up the vhosts file, move the vhosts config to the end of httpd.conf instead.

This should enable name-based configuration instead of IP-based. If you don't set it this way, Apache will resolve your sites' paths by IP, and since you specify a single IP, identical to all virtual hosts, the last one will take precedence over the previous ones. Your last vhost's docroot is C:\wamp\www - making the behaviour you describe absolutely normal.

UPDATE:

Since the document root C:\wamp\www\computerstore is specified for the domain name computerstore.local, remember to also go to http://computerstore.local in your browser. If you try http://localhost/computerstore, the domain name will be resolved as localhost, and in the first vhost, its document root is set to C:\wamp\www. computerstore will be treated just as a subdirectory; the docroot will not be changed in this case.

Did you try placing C:\wamp\www\conputerstore between quotes?

As an example here is my vhost config:

<VirtualHost *:8082>  
  DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/test"  
  DirectoryIndex index.php  
  <Directory "c:/wamp/www/test">  
    AllowOverride All  
    Allow from All  
  </Directory>  
</VirtualHost>
