My environment is WampServer Version 2.5 running Apache/2.4.9 (Win64) PHP/5.5.12/ MySQL 5.6.17.
The localhost
works fine and I can see the project folders
in the DocumentRoot
. When I try to navigate the project folders
via the links, the browser cannot find them. For example if I try to open test
folder inside www
, i.e. localhost-->test
results in the test folder
not found and apparently the url in the browser shows http://test/
. But if I manually enter the location in the browser like http://localhost/test/
, then I can see the project and then on wards can navigate the subfolders via links.
I want to be able to navigate the project from my localhost
rather than typing it out.
Wamp 2.5 can use virtual host. here is nice tutorial. But if you still want to use localhost use this:
in WWW director -> index.php file search for:
$suppress_localhost = true; // line 30
and set this to false:
$suppress_localhost = false;
And to make work the "My Projects" from tray menu you need to edit the refresh.php
file from c:\Wamp\scripts
on line 651 replace:
$myreplacesubmenuProjects .= 'Type: item; Caption: "'.$projectContents[$i].'"; Action: run; FileName: "'.$c_navigator.'"; Parameters: "http://'.$projectContents[$i].'/"; Glyph: 5 ';
with:
$myreplacesubmenuProjects .= 'Type: item; Caption: "'.$projectContents[$i].'"; Action: run; FileName: "'.$c_navigator.'"; Parameters: "http://localhost/'.$projectContents[$i].'/"; Glyph: 5 ';
and right on tray icon and click "Refresh".
