I currently have WAMPSERVER 2.2 set up on my PC.

I'm trying to set up a new host called pplocal.local

I made the changes in httpd.conf to uncomment this:

Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Then, I edited httpd-vhosts.cong and I added the following:

NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
   DocumentRoot "E:/wamp2/www/"
   ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
DocumentRoot "E:/wamp2/www/pp/"
ServerName pplocal.local

<Directory "E:/wamp2/www/pp/">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride all
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>

CustomLog "E:\wamp2\logs\pplocal-access.log" common ErrorLog "E:\wamp2\logs\pplocal-error.log"

Im my windows 'hosts' file I added:

127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.0.1 pplocal.local

Then, I restarted apache.

If I type localhost in my browser I get the files at E:/wamp2/www/ If I type pplocal.local in my browser I get the files at E:/wam2/www/ instead of those at E:/wamp2/www/pp/

I have followed several tutorials and can't see what I'm doing wrong. I'm new to editing the files associated with apache so any advice is appreciated.

Thanks
