HConfigure xampp

1. Enable virtual hosts by editing httpd.conf, if it is not enabled already. Once you
enable it you can skip this step next time.

sudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf

Find #Include etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf and remove the # to un-comment this line

Include etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

2. Add new virtual host by opening the httpd-vhosts.conf file

sudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Usually, by default there are two virtual hosts in this file. You can edit one or create
new one by copy-pasting one of them. The required entries are DocumentRoot and
ServerName
ServerAdmin your_email@domain_name.com
DocumentRoot "*YourLocation*"
ServerName mysite.local
ServerAlias www.mysite.local
ErrorLog logs/mysite.local-error_log
CustomLog logs/mysite.local-access_log common

Options All
AllowOverride All
Require all granted

<VirtualHost *:80>

ServerAdmin your_email@domain_name.com

DocumentRoot /opt/lampp/htdocs/meusite

ServerName meusite.local

ServerAlias www.meusite.local

ErrorLog logs/meusite.local-error_log

CustomLog logs/meusite.local-access_log common

</VirtualHost>

3. Next, you will need to tell Xampp server where to find the address you added above:

sudo gedit /etc/hosts

Add the following line:

127.0.0.1 meusite.local
4. Restart xampp server by doing

sudo /opt/lampp/lampp restart

5. Type http://localhost.meusite in browsers address bar and it should work.
