virtual hosts on Apache 2 under win2k

[MrRosary]

HELP....

I am planning a php application that relies on using differnt domain names pointing at the same files.

The problem is I have no luck setting up apache2/Win2k to do this for me.

At the moment the virtual hosts section of my httpd.conf file looks like this

NameVirtualHost *

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName pip.test
ServerAlias pip.test
DocumentRoot C:/Program files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName eagle.test
ServerAlias eagle.test
DocumentRoot C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/eagle
</VirtualHost>

Apache refuses to start up with this in place... remove it and all is fine.

I can get virtual hosts running on Apache2/Linux (but dont have a linux machine here at work) what the hell am I doing wrong here?

ok so the path names should have been in double quotes.

apache loads now but nothing happens with regards to the virtual hosts. All I can use in localhost, same as normal.

err....I feel kinda stupid asking this, but you kno that for Virtual Hosts to work correctly, u must have DNS entries that point to ur ip rite?. IN ur case

pip.test and eagle.test must be valid registered domains, you cannot just invent names and hope it wudd work.
