I am having a odd error with Apache 2.4. I installed it, everything should be good, I start it, and I get a 404 error on localhost.I am new to all this, I am using the port 8080 but if I try localhost:8080 is still doesn't work. I don't have a clue as to what is wrong.

Christian, I was watching a helpful video that made it work with mywebsite.localhost.Pandy- I tried that all with vituralhost,i don't understand why it is not working.
If you want to see the code, here is a snipit because I know if I copied the whole httpd.conf and httpd-vhosts.conf it would be very long post. <VirtualHost *:8080> ServerAdmin webmaster@mywebsite.localdomain:8080 DocumentRoot "c:/Users/MyUser/mywebsite" ServerName mywebsite.localdomain:8080 ErrorLog "logs/mywebsite.localdomain:8080-error.log" CustomLog "logs/mywebsite.localdomain:8080-access.log" common </VirtualHost> And then here is the line in the httpd.conf that I had to edit: Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf Also, oddly enough, even when I stop apache localhost:8080 is still up, with "it works!"

I don't put my VirtualHost directives in there (on Apache 2.2), instead I put them in the httpd-vhosts.conf file: CODE <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1> ServerName foo ServerAdmin christianj@foo.com DocumentRoot "C:/Users/christianj/Documents/foo/htdocs" ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Users/christianj/Documents/foo/cgi-bin" </VirtualHost> (details may vary), combined with entries in Windows' hosts file at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts like these: CODE 127.0.0.1 foo 127.0.0.1 bar I haven't tried this for years, so don't rely too much on my "advice". No idea if it will work with the "foo.localhost" format. QUOTE Also, oddly enough, even when I stop apache localhost:8080 is still up, with "it works!" Probably just a cached page in the browser. |

So I guess that has changed. Haven't used the latest Apache on my own machine.
