Test mobile website - mobile

I am developing a mobile website and so far I have been testing it in Chrome. Now I would like to test it on my phone.
I am using WAMP and in my hosts file I have the following:
127.0.0.1 www.mysite.com
In my httpd.conf:
<Directory />
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.mysite.com
DocumentRoot "D:/Path/to/website/root"
DirectoryIndex index.php
</VirtualHost>
What should I type in my mobile browser to hit this website? Do I need to change some WAMP settings or anything else?

Add a rule to httpd.conf or to an alias file for your project:
<Directory "D:/Path/to/website/root">
AllowOverride all
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from 192.168.1.
</Directory>
MAke sure you restart apache after chaging configuration to see the effects. You may also need to put WAMP "Online" by clicking on the icon in the system tray and choosing "Put Online".
Then try accessing you page using the host computer's local IP address.

Connect to multiple local sites on mobile

I have multiple local sites which I develop on my local machine.
I'd like to be able to access them on a mobile device while they are still local on my machine.
Using XAMPP these are example vhosts configs:
<VirtualHost *:8080>
DocumentRoot "C:/design and photos/agency1/website/public_html"
ServerName agency1dev.com
<Directory "C:/design and photos/agency1/website/public_html">
Options All
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:8080>
DocumentRoot "C:/design and photos/captives/website/public_html"
ServerName capdev.com
<Directory "C:/design and photos/captives/website/public_html">
Options All
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Windows hosts file
127.0.0.1 agency1dev.com
127.0.0.1 capdev.com
I understand I can use my machines IP address to reach e.g.:
http://196.168.2.3:8080
But this goes to the XAMPP dir, so, how do I access e.g. agency1dev.com?
Is this possible?
You can try using Finch, https://meetfinch.com
It's very easy to use (recently released a GUI for it) and just 'works' without having to do anything.
Full disclosure: I'm involved in the project.
The solution I found was using NGROK
Very easy to implement:
In cmd or some shell
Go to: C:\path\to\ngrok
Type:
ngrok http -host-header=myapp.dev 8080
Change myapp.dev to suit what you want to look at - and change port (8080) accordingly
Then look at output and it will give you a http and https url to navigate to on your device
Simple!

How to change default Apache conf file for prestashop?

How to make prestashop to use prestashop.conf file which is a clone of 000.default.conf on my local server?
When I disable 000-default.conf, prestashop don't load.
When I enable that back, the web-page loads normally.
I've enabled prestashop.conf and reloaded/restarted Apache.
I use Apache2, prestashop 1.6.1, OS is Linux Mint.
Maybe someone can give me advice what else should I change. I haven't found solution so far.
P.S. prestashop.conf is complete clone of 000-default.conf.
Have you changed the paths to match these of your website?
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin youradminlogin#yourwebsite.com
DocumentRoot "path/of/your/website"
ServerName website-name.com
Options All Indexes FollowSymLinks
<Directory "path/of/your/website">
DirectoryIndex index.html
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Make shure it is in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ !
After modifying this, you'll need to restart the server (sudo apachectl restart)

Get Apache VHost to load index.html instead of web directory

I'm having no luck finding this question answered so I'm asking this myself.
To get my VHost working, I followed this answer. My (working) "httpd-vhosts.conf" file looks like this
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin jesuscc1993#gmail.com
DocumentRoot "Z:/Projects/Web/MetalTxus Site"
ServerName metaltxus.test
ServerAlias www.metaltxus.test
<Directory "Z:/Projects/Web/MetalTxus Site">
#Options FollowSymLinks
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
As far as I know, I should change "Indexes" with "-Indexes" to make the web load "index.html" instead of the web directory.
However, when I did that, my WAMPServer wouldn't start. It would if I removed "FollowSymLinks" option but then all I got was a "403 - Forbidden" page ("you don't have permission to access "/" on this server").
As looking for a solution got me nowhere, I used this as my last resource.
I'm using latest WampServer version in Windows 8.1. I want to test an AngularJS application.
If you need any more information, go ahead and ask.
Try this :-
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin jesuscc1993#gmail.com
DocumentRoot "Z:/Projects/Web/MetalTxus Site"
ServerName metaltxus.test
ServerAlias www.metaltxus.test
<Directory "Z:/Projects/Web/MetalTxus Site">
AllowOverride All
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
The Require all granted is Apache 2.4 syntax where you were using Apache 2.2 syntax when using
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
Now all you need to do is place a file called index.html or index.php in the "Z:/Projects/Web/MetalTxus Site" folder.
I would suggest removing the space in the folder name MetalTxus Site its not absolutely necessary but it removes another possible complexity.
Also if you dont actually mean to give access to the site to The Universe try using
Require local
And if you want to be able to access the site just from other PC's on your internal network use
Require local
Require ip 192.168.1
ADDITIONAL SUGGESTION:
Also check httpd.con has thi sline uncommented
LoadModule dir_module modules/mod_dir.so
An has this
<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.php3 index.html index.htm
</IfModule>

Virtual Host don't redirect properly with CakePHP and MAMP

I'm developing a web with cakePHP (using MAMP as localhost) and I just configured a virtual hosts to the root of my project.
My /etc/hosts is
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 altair.loc
And my httpd.conf
NameVirtualHost *
<VirtualHost *>
DocumentRoot "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/robotThree/www/"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
DocumentRoot "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/robotThree/www/ALTAIR/altair/"
ServerName altair.loc
</VirtualHost>
With this I can access to my project typing http://altair.loc and all controllers and actions works perfectly (i.e. http://altair.loc/controller/action).
The problem is that all files accessed statically fails. For example http://altair.loc/css/main.css fails, but it works if I type http://altair.loc/ALTAIR/altair/css/main.css, as if the virtual host wasn't configured.
Do you know what could be happening?
Thank you in advance
Solved. In httpd.conf is necessary to check that Override is for all, it was an .htaccess and mod_rewrite issue:
<Directory />
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

VirtualHost - Server not found

I'm running different websites on my webserver using Apache VirtualHosts. Now I have troubles getting one site to work. When I browse to the site in Firefox it says "Firefox can't find the server at www.mydomain.com", even though it's spelled correctly.
Further traceroute and ping both resolve to the correct IP, so I doubt it is because of a DNS issue.
I copied the VirtualHost-config file from a working site and just changed the domains and path on the server, which is existent. Further I checked that the site is enabled (with a2ensite), restartet apache, reloaded apache, but it is still not working.
Here's my VirtualHost-File:
<VirtualHost censored_ip:80>
ServerName mydomain.com
ServerAlias mydomain.com www.mydomain.com
ServerAdmin <myemail>
DocumentRoot /var/www/efin/
<Directory /var/www/efin/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error_efin.log
LogLevel warn
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
ServerSignature On
</VirtualHost>
I hope someone can find the error here, since I have no idea where to look for it anymore. Thanks a lot in advance. I'd be happy to provide further information if needed.
Sincerely, Michael
