Re: [support] Weird Browser Problem

I highly recommend:

http://mayakron.altervista.org/wikibase/show.php?id=AcrylicHome

It's a DNS proxy for Windows (open source) that lets you create wildcard host entries as well as your own tlds. You can simply define:

127.0.0.1 *.local

And you're all set. Create any .local VirtualHost and it connects. Easy to install and saves countless headaches.

I ran into one package that refused to accept a one word domain, I forget which package it is. It is best to setup using two word domains such as http://giant.local/ which helps with the standardization of URL.

I use wampserver and i'll occasionally have trouble because I use one word domains, like 'http://giant'. that gets confused with search terms.

I'd recommend adding echo $_GET['q']; exit; in index.php to see the address that the code is looking at and see if that matches what you're expecting. Sounds like there might be a problem in the .htaccess conversion.

Sounds like a Apache configuration or htaccess problem. Have you
tried accessing a static file, like CHANGELOG.txt or something in
the files directory?

FYI - I used WAMPSERVER for years and always had little problems
similar to this. I dumped it and went to EasyPHP last year and
haven't looked back, although I've been moving more and more to
vagrant for the bigger client sites.
