[zeesh49]

someone please help, ive been on this since the past three days, no success… 🙁

[zeesh49]

I have setup up the vhost and updated the host file,there is no server error when I follow the above mentioned process, how can I check if my vhost is setup correctly or not, its working…

[zeesh49]

No, I logout, click the register link, fill the form, click complete signup and the page refreshes, I checked the html, the form doesnt have an action url…

[zeesh49]

thanks for the response, I searched google as well as this forum, nothing…

One resolved query on this forum says to implement virtual host, did that, nothing, I checked the html, the signup form tag doesnt have an action set, I can update that in the php file, but to what?

Another post suggests thats its because of the fact that no email is registered, I wana confirm that before looking into sending emails from localhost…

@quaelibet and @danbp can you provide details of how you setup a vhost? I googled and have been able to setup a vhost but it only access the xampp page and not the wordpress page.

My host file contains the following:
127.0.0.1 buddypress.local
::1 buddypress.local

My httpd-vhosts.conf file contains the following:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot c:/xampp/htdocs
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot c:/xampp/htdocs
#DocumentRoot c:/vhosts/buddypress.local
ServerName buddypress.local
</VirtualHost>

when i run the URL: http://buddypress.local, it resolves to http://buddypress.local/xampp/ page
but when I run the URL http://buddypress.local/wp (my wordpress folder name is ‘WP’) it says page cannot be displayed. this is in internet explorer.

kindly help.
