How to map multiple Apache localhost URLs to directories on Windows?

  • 772

I have installed Apache and in httpd.conf have set the DocumentRoot to "c:\testweb" which is available via "http://localhost".

How can I now enable it so that "http://localhost/web2" goes to "c:\web2"?

  1. This works for me:

    Alias /myapp "C:\web2"
<Directory "C:\web2" >
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride none
        Require all granted
</Directory>

  2. An example for a settings could be found at:
    http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html
    http://www.nodans.com/index.cfm/2006/10/10/Apache-Directory-Aliases-and-Virtual-Directories
    and in short you should add something like that to the httpd.conf:

    Alias /web2 c:/web2
<Directory /web2>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

    All this assumes that you enabled mod_alias of apache.
