A good lead is the Apache manual on virtual hosting; http://httpd.apache.org/docs/vhosts/index.html in particular; http://httpd.apache.org/docs/vhosts/name-based.html in the examples shown there you will notice the virtualHost line is; <VirtualHost 111.22.33.44> ie it uses an IP address, your config uses a host name; > <VirtualHost test.localhost> so on startup Apache will try to resolve test.localhost to an IP address. It fails so ignores the virtual host entry. You could probably fix it by adding an entry to you hosts file like 127.0.0.1 test.localhost but I think this would only be good for requests coming from a browser on the server machine. For simple installations I think you will find an entry like; <VirtualHost *> will work well (it also allows you to use dynamic DNS without changing your config file). The example in the documentation also does not use a trailing slash in the document root. I don't know if this is important but with some config directives it is so I generally follow the documentation *exactly*. So the complete virtual host entry would be; <VirtualHost *> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/htdocs/test" ServerName test.localhost ErrorLog logs/test.localhost-error_log CustomLog logs/test.localhost-access_log common </VirtualHost> HTH Andrew Braund > > I am trying to setup Apache with PHP on Win32 (don't ask > why).
