I have setup a webserver in my company with WampServer installed on it. Previously we are only running a single domain on that. Now there was a need to host another domain on the same server. For this issue, i search over the google to find the method of using multiple domains on a wampserver. Luckly, i succeeded in setting up the 2nd domain on the server with an effort of an hour or so.

Here are the steps to setup additional domains on a wampserver, if you are using it for production use.

1- Click on wampserver icon in the system tray and select Apache -> httpd.conf

2- Goto the very bottom of the file and enable the following settings for virtaul hosts

Code: Select all

# Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf


3- Then goto the wamp\bin\apache\Apachex.x.x\conf\extra and open the file httpd-vhosts.conf with notepad or any text editor application.

4- There will be sample extries like

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.localhost
    DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/docs/dummy-host.localhost"
    ServerName dummy-host.localhost
    ServerAlias www.dummy-host.localhost
    ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host.localhost-error.log"
    CustomLog "logs/dummy-host.localhost-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>


You can edit the sample entries to add your real domain, the sample entry may look like

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@geosourcecode.com
    DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/geosourcecode.com"
    ServerName geosourcecode.com
    ErrorLog "logs/geosourcecode-error.log"
    CustomLog "logs/geosourcecode-access.log"
</VirtualHost>


Simple .... it works perfectly for me
