在Windows 10的apache2.4上启动laravel应用

Question

I have a laravel app, which I test with php artisan serve .

I discovered that this is a bad practise, because it is not used on production.

I have installed apache2.4, it worked, when I open localhost I see 'It Works'.

Now I try to start my laravel app through apache on my PC.

For this I have done the following steps:

1. Edited the httpd.conf in Apache\\conf , I uncommented this line:

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

2. Edited the httpd-vhosts.conf in Apache\\conf\\extra , I added:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "Y:/PHP-Projects"
    ServerName localhost 
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "Y:/PHP-Projects/Project-Admin-PHP/public"
    ServerName localhost.eu 
</VirtualHost>

3. Edited the hosts file in Windows\\System32\\drivers\\etc , I added:

127.0.0.1 www.localhost.eu localhost.eu

After every step I restarted the Apache2.4 service, but I still cant access my laravel application. The only thing, what changed is that I now get ' It Works ' also on this domain: localhost.eu

What have I missed?

Currently I am starting my laravel app through php artisan serve . I can then access the app at localhost:8000 .

Also I know I could set up homestead. But I discovered it too late. I have already configured and installed everything myself, and besides this one issue, everything works.

I'd like to understand how I would connect my laravel app to the apache server correctly myself.

Answer 1

Probably you forgot include file httpd-vhosts.conf file in httpd.conf . Sometimes this line commented by default and you should uncomment this line. After then you should restart apache2 service.

Answer 2

Add server alias on your file config

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "Y:/PHP-Projects/Project-Admin-PHP/public"
    ServerName localhost.eu
    ServerAlias www.localcost.eu
</VirtualHost>
