Hi Darwin, you may need to add entries to your hosts file or if you have access to a DNS server, make a wildcard subdomain of localhost to point to 127.0.0.1

i’ve try add this code to httpd.conf :

ServerAdmin root@localhost
DocumentRoot “d:/phpfiles/”
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias *.localhost
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.localhost$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /%1/$1

after restart apache, i try access tes.localhost, but Firefox always treat it like a ordinary website ,with adding “www” => http://www.tes.localhost , so Firefox return “Address Not Found”. are there other program needed like dns ,etc ? thx
