I have a local Apache server running on my desktop which allows me to run a local site which I want to access from my laptop.
I'm able to access the computer in my hosts file using '192.168.0.5 liam.pc' but I can't figure out how to enter a directory. I've tried '192.168.0.5/Hudex/public hudex.dev' but it doesn't seem to work.
How can I accomplish the effect I want?
HOSTS file:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 zheil.dev
192.168.0.5 liam.pc

I ran into the problem, that localhost redirects to a specific domain instead of 127.0.0.1.
My configuration is a local apache/mysql/php installation on MacOS Mojave using vhosts for different projects that are configured in hosts to redirect properly.
When I enter 127.0.0.1 in any browser, I get to my overview page lying in the www root. The same should happen, when I enter localhost in the browser, but instead it redirects to a domain of a project I was working on in the past. It happens also without network connection, so the configuration is on this machine.
My /etc/hosts file:
##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost project1.local project2.local
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost
The first line seems to be ignored and localhost doesn't resolve to 127.0.0.1.
I only have two vhost configurations plus default configuration with no wrong redirection and also the httpd.conf lookes fine. I searched the whole machine with grep -lr "redirectiondomain.com" * without results. I tried with apache switched off with the same result and looked up the MacOS network settings but I can't find anything related to the wrong redirection neither any other solution on stackoverflow or google that solves my issue. Has anybody a clue how the wrong redirection of localhost could be set somewhere else?
Edit: My hostname in MacOS is set. I tried localhost without port, with :80 and :8080
I am trying to setup my vagrant virtual box enviorment for development. Everything works fine. I have the shared folder setup and can access the information from my browser but only using the ip address. I can't use the website.app urls from windows even after i put it in my hosts file.
I used https://puphpet.com/ for the configuration file.
This is my hosts file:
192.168.56.101 website.app
I am using homestead and it is my first time. now i can run the homestead up and machine starts.
i edited the homestead.yaml file and i edited hosts file but when i try to go to my website in the browser it says that the webpage is not available.
for more information i am using windows and virtual box and here is my hosts file
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.10.10 exam.dev
i am wondering what can i do to fix this problem. what i am missing here?
Edit: i tried to ping the 192.168.10.10 but it says that destination host is unreachable
i'm using wamp 5, windows XP. i have edited my host file in my local disk like the code below and it works
127.0.0.0 example.com
but i'd like to redirect to a particular folder, if i change it to the code below, it dont work
127.0.0.0/main/site example.com
how to redirect example.com to 127.0.0.0/main/site locally in my PC?
btw, i dont want to install any new software to solve this prob
You need to create a Virtual Hosts
Leave the HOST file as
127.0.0.1 example.com
When you define a Virtual Host you also tell it which folder is its DocumentRoot so that will send it to the right place when you use the address example.com in the browser.

I wish all calls to my_remote_host:port to be redirected to my_local_host:port, where my remote host is Linux and my local host is Windwos
Open File C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
127.0.0.1 my_local_host
