I’ve got XAMPP installed on a Windows 7 machine. I wanted a way to test multiple sites locally.<\/p>\n

Set up the local host file<\/h3>\n
In your host file, add (replace with the domains you want):<\/p>\n
[code]127.0.0.1\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0sub.domain.com.dev
\n127.0.0.1\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0www.example.com.dev
\n127.0.0.1\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0www.unfocus.com.dev[\/code]<\/p>\n
UPDATE: Thanks to xip.io<\/a> the host file edits are optional if you use the style www.example.com.127.0.0.1.xip.io (replace 127.0.0.1 with your actual IP address). This is compatible with Adobe’s Edge Inspect<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Set up XAMPP config files<\/h3>\n

In \\xampp\\apache\\conf\\httpd.conf uncomment the following at about line 140:<\/p>\n

[code]LoadModule vhost_alias_module modules\/mod_vhost_alias.so[\/code]<\/p>\n

I’ve used the folder structure of “\\xampp\\htdocs\\www.example.com\\web\\content\\files.php” (for example) and the following config will find the folder with the exact name in the url.<\/p>\n

In \\xampp\\apache\\conf\\extra\\httpd-vhosts.conf:<\/p>\n

[hoops name=\"config\"]<\/pre>\nFix DOCUMENT_ROOT<\/h3>\nIf you are having issues with DOCUMENT_ROOT, create setdocroot.php at “\\xampp\\” and put the following in it:<\/p>\n[hoops name=\"fix\"]<\/pre>\nReferences:
