Answer 1

Problem resolved in a simplest way and less steps No Need of creating virtual host just change the location of target directory.

Here's what i have done for configuration: I've done it by editing the C:/xampp/apache/conf/httpd.conf file Changings that I have done in httpd.conf file Added this script right after ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/xampp/apache)/"

Alias /projectXYZ "C:/pathtomyproject" Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all

Pathtomyproject = Complete path of project

And changed the url of Document Root DocumentRoot " C:/pathtomyproject "

Now restart the Apache Server by stopping the server. I have stopped Apache server, and then again started the Apache Server.
