Setting up a virtual host on XAMPP on Mac

Question

I am trying to set up a virtualhost on my apple mac on localhost. The server is provided by XAMPP, which bundles Apache/MySQL/PHP in one bundle.

Here is what I have done

Answer 1

Try leaving the the setting for "localhost" at the end of the file "httpd-vhosts.conf", i.e.:

#
# Virtual Hosts
#
...

# others vhost

...


# localhost

    ServerName localhost
    DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs"
    
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes execCGI
        AllowOverride All
        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow From All
    

#end of httpd-vhosts.conf file

Worked for me, greetings!
