I am not sure what I am missing but after updating my httpd.conf file by uncommenting the string to allow httpd-vhost.conf
to allow httpd-vhost.conf and update httpd-vhost.conf
update https-vhost.conf file:
# localhost
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs"
<Directory "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes execCGI
AllowOverride All
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
# My custom host
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mysite.dev
DocumentRoot "/Users/myusername/Projects/myNewsite"
<Directory "/Users/myusername/Projects/myNewsite">
Options All
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog "logs/mysite.local-error_log"
</VirtualHost>
and add a new vhost with a new server name.
Last I updated my OX host file with
127.0.0.1 mysite.dev
But when I type http://mysite.dev
into the browser the default XAMPP page is displayed.
I also updated the httpd.conf file and changed
User myusername
Group nogroup
Does anyone see anything I missed and why I can not get my site up?
Thanks!
