On the face of it, AMPPS looks great. Easy to set up. In practice, much does not seem to work as it should.
FTP
I add an FTP account and this creates a directory. However, nothing appears in Manage FTP and the service never starts.
Virtual Hosts
I add multiple domains and point these to different directories:
127.0.0.1. /Applications/AMPPS/www Primary
ABC.com /Applications/AMPPS/www/abc.com Addon
123.com /Applications/AMPPS/www/123.com Addon
Xyz.com /Applications/AMPPS/www/xyz.com Addon
When I go to ABC.com, 123.com or xyz.com, the result is the root directory. I managed to get this to work properly on the server itself, by editing the http.conf file directly with *.80 instead of localhost at the start of each virtual host. Howerver, this only works for the server itself and not from the web or other machines on the same subnet.
PHP
I can see multiple versions of PHP running but only 5.631 is runnng. I can see no easy way of changing this to 7. The instructions I saw in a forum stated I should shutdown apache and MySQL and then select php7. Sounds easy, but how do you do these things? There is reboot for apache but I can’t see a gui way of stopping it. I can
Do this at the command line but there should be an easier way.
Documentation
I can’t find any. I am searching forums but much of the information is very old and out of date.
