How can I host multiple websites on a WAMP server?

[kufu]

I am new with Apache and I want to try this:

On a server (IP xx.xx.xx.xx) I would like to host multiple websites (www.website1.xxx, www.website2.yyy, www2.website3.z zz).

I have assigned www.website1.xxx and www2.website3.z zz the IP xx.xx.xx.xx.

In the www folder of the server I have Folder1 (for website1) and Folder2 (for website3).

Now, the problem is that no mather what adress you try to acces, the result is index from Folder1.
The code is as follows:

<virtualhost *:80>
ServerName website1.xxx
ServerAlias www.website1.xxx
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/Folder1
</virtualhost>

<virtualhost *:80>
ServerName website3.zzz
ServerAlias www2.website3.zzz
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/Folder2
</virtualhost>

I use WAMPSERVER on Win XP with Apache 2.2.11

Thank you!

Try this:

Go to your Hosts file:
"C:\windows\sys tem32\drivers\e tc"

Add this:
127.0.0.1 website1.xxx
127.0.0.1 website3.zzz
127.0.0.1 www.website1.xxx
127.0.0.1 www.website3.zzz

In your conf file use this:

NameVirtualHost *:80
<virtualhost 127.0.0.1>
ServerName website1.xxx
ServerAlias www.website1.xxx
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/Folder1
</virtualhost>
 
<virtualhost 127.0.0.1>
ServerName website3.zzz
ServerAlias www2.website3.zzz
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/Folder2
</virtualhost>

note: 127.0.0.1 is the ip to most pc's local hosts

Is taking me to the root of www (c:/wamp/www/) for both adresses...

Why must make the modifications in the Hosts file?

Thanks!

It's the only way those domains will propogate to your local host. Make sure that those folders exist and that there are valid index.html files in there.

Try this: (added .htacces support and DirectoryIndex so it points to index.html file)

NameVirtualHost *:80
<virtualhost 127.0.0.1>
ServerName website1.xxx
ServerAlias www.website1.xxx
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/Folder1"
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/Folder1">
allow from all
order allow,deny
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
</virtualhost>
 
<virtualhost 127.0.0.1>
ServerName website3.zzz
ServerAlias www2.website3.zzz
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/Folder2"
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/Folder2">
allow from all
order allow,deny
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
</virtualhost>

Also, don't forget to restart all services on your wamp server after making changes! Important step.

No change...

But... if I try to access the addresses from local machine, I get only Folder1. If accessed from internet, I get /www index.

EDIT: after each change I restart the Apache server...
