 Creating a symlink / dropbox / virtual hosts, New to ampss - can't seem to change folder to dropbox (3 Replies, Read 5876 times)

Hi

Sorry if this is something that should be simple. Let me start by describing what I'm trying to achieve: I'd like to have my websites all hosted in a dropbox folder in such a way that I can change the web address and change between them easily.

I could do this with xammp but can't seem to work it out.

Firstly, I've tried to do this with one of the sites on dropbox by editing the https.conf file and updating the document root. But whenever I edit that, I can't seem to restart apache - the button remains greyed out.

Reading around more, it sounds as though I shouldn't be editing that file anyway and I should be creating a symlink. I've searched for a simple explanation on how to do this but can't do it. I've recently swapped from PC to Mac (mavericks macbook pro) so perhaps I'm just getting confused.

I'd really appreciated if someone could help me get up and running with this and explain the steps in an easy to understand way.

VERY much appreciated!
