xampp question

[Inteligentny]

hello, I got question how to do in xampp something like this: (I dont know english enough to write exacly what I want so I will give simply example)

The main IP is otsoftland.com
(its just example)

And I want to this domain connect with my folder in xampp which is called "pvp"

So all I want is: After type in internet browser: otsoftland.com and press enter it shall move user to otsoftland.com/pvp

Its something with Virtualhost in xampp I guess... but dont know more :< anyone could give some info?

I think you can just put the DNS redirects of your domain to <yourip>/pvp

I think you can just put the DNS redirects of your domain to <yourip>/pvp

You can try what christian said, but i think that Folder is gonna appear when the browser redirects the people so it will appear <yourdomain.com/pvp>..

I recommend you to go your xampp folder

Open apache folder > conf > httpd > notepad or your favorite text editor and search for this following lines:

# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your # documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but # symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations. # DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"

<- Change That for pvp


after changing that one then go to this lines they are a little bit down the previous i said:

# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
#
<Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs">
#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
# Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews

Change the ROOT folder to pvp again.. And done thoug. good luck!


So you just have to type:
<yourdomain>.com And Done it redirects you to your file

Hm ok thanks, first one is not working because it can't be done in DNS redirects
"/pvp" isnt IP, that what is saying there.


second one: but for example I have two folders in htdocs

first one "pvp"
and other "non-pvp"

How to do that people who is connecting with ip:

www.pvp.com

will be redirected to

www.pvp.com/pvp

and people who typed

www.non-pvp.com

will be redirected to

www.non-pvp.com/non-pvp

Is it even possible?
Thanks again for anserwers

dont known a lot about xamp but at linux in apache there something like virtualhosts
that is example that i use

<VirtualHost IP_adress:80>
     <Directory "/var/www/aac">
         Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
     </Directory>
