PHP won't work on virtual host...

Anon

Not sure if this is Apache or php, but here goes...

On my other windoze pc (not connected to the net), I had "localhost" pointing to "I:/home" (or just /home cos everything's on the same drive).

I wanted MyBest50.com to map to /home/natasha/www, so when testing my site the absolute urls work. I tried virtual hosts, and added the following to my Apache conf file...

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /home
ServerName localhost
ErrorLog logs/error.log
CustomLog logs/access.log common
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
ServerAdmin webmaster@mybest50.com
DocumentRoot /home/natasha/www
ServerName mybest50.com
ErrorLog logs/mybest50.com-error.log
CustomLog logs/mybest50.com-access.log common
</VirtualHost>

And fired up Apache. Didn't work... So, I messed about a little, and told internet explorer to use 127.0.0.1 as a proxy (stupid idea, but I needed it to look there for all addresses, rather than looking for an internet connection). It worked! http://www.mybest50.com now servers from /home/natasha/www

HOWEVER...
When I call www.mybest50.com/categories.php, it dies and says it can't open "I:/home/categories.php" !!!
I guess this is cos it's being passed to another program, but I don't know how to fix it.

I hope someone can help!

Thanks in advance,

Danny

Fixed it!

In php.ini I removed the document root part, and it worked, which makes me wonder what it's there for in the first place (other than screwing up virtualhosts!)

Anon

Just out of interest, what program are u using. Thanks

Anon

Program? I'm using WinME, Apache and PHP if that's what you mean...?

Anon

no sorry i meant what PHP script are u using and where can i get it from as i have a smilar script but am having probs with it. Thanks, sanjay.

Anon

Eh? What script? For MyBest50.com? I wrote it myself! It's taken months to get right, but I'm sure (well, I hope) it'll be worth it.

Logo's Unlimited scored 10 out of 10. I like it. You own Logo's Unlimied dont you.

Anon

No sorry, I don't.

It was given 10 stars before it was designed, personally I don't like the new design, but the service they provide is top class!

Anon

Steve Musgrove runs LogosUnlimited, and we use his business for MyBest50, just makes life easier 🙂

Anon

OK, lets just end this Topic! Any chance of getting a free listing for my site MonsterMobile.co.uk. It will be taking orders very soon. (My supplier is Steve if that helps 🙂

Anon

Sure, if you go to http://mybest50.com/freemonth.php and fill the form in, we should get round to it quivker. Should be today or tomorrow.

Anon

Ok thanks. Try and look past the fact that we only have a few products so far, as we are still developing our website. The reason i want it listed is to get people to open an account and then i can email them when we start taking orders. We will be selling all the same products as logosunlimited and more.

Anon

Yeh, someone wil rate and review your site today or tomorrow (I don't think Steve should do it, he'd give you 2 stars! lol!)
