Hard to really tell what's going on, but here's a couple things to try.

Don't forget to restart your server after changes (probably already are, just have to make sure).

The vhost definitions all seem pretty unnecessary, why not just listen on localhost:80 and docroot to mecweb?

Hi everyone
I apologize in advance if I ramble/dont get to the point, my girlfriend says I do that a lot.

I just installed 2.2.6 on Windows XP with the intention of testing various websites being written on the local machine. I am having a few problems and I think they arise from my inexperience with apache so any help would be great.

Here are some stuff my httpd.conf and httpd-vhosts.conf files

ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2"
Listen localhost:80
ServerName localhost:80 ( I dont think I changed this I just put localhost as server name in the msi)
DocumentRoot "C:\wwwroot\mecweb"
<Directory "C:\wwwroot\mecweb"> (defaults inside)

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName localhost
    DocumentRoot "C:\wwwroot\mecweb"
</VirtualHOst>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "C:\wwwroot\mecweb"
    ServerName mecweb.localhost
    ServerAlias mecweb.localhost
    ErrorLog "logs\mecweb-error_log"
</VirtualHost>


Ok so what I had in mind was to work on website "mecweb" then go to my web browser and type something like mecweb.localhost and well that didnt work so I changed my document root to mecweb's folder and figured that when I point web browser to localhost it would pull that up. But instead I keep getting phpmyadmin which is in "C:\wwwroot" which was the old doc-root before changing it to "C:\wwwroot\mecweb"

Is there some huge conceptual error that I just keeping making?

Thanks

Manny
