[Xitami] Setting Up Virtual Hosts

[Otto Haldi]

Many thanks too for your help.

Only a small question. I'm using Xitami only locally to learn PHP. 
Question: how do you start the another web located on separated directory's.
Like: d:\web\ex1\index.htm
      d:\web\ex2\index.htm
      ...
      
I did the following with the help of the "Virtual hosts" template: 


This created a new file called "ex1.cfg" who look like this:
#*END

[Accesslog]
    Filename = "ex1.log"
[Security]
    Filename = "ex1.aut"
[Server]
    Webpages = "d:/web/ex1"
[Wsx]
    Admin = ""

I tried to start the page with: 
http://localhost/ex1, but do not work!

if I start with this URL: http://localhost/admin
then the admin page is loaded correctly.

What is the right way to create many web?

My defalut.cfg file look like that:
#*END
[Security]
    Filename = "defaults.aut"
[Server]
    Priority = "1"
[Virtual-hosts]
    * = "ex1.cfg"

Many thanks in advance for your help. 

Regards 

Otto
