Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 5 Status:	Hello, I am using OSX. I'm trying to set up AMPPS so that when I type "http ://datavis.local", it takes me to my dev project folder (located in /Users/Tom/Web/dev/datavis). I did the following steps in the AMPPS home menu: Configure -> Add New Domain: Domain name: datavis.local Domain Addon: checked Domain Path: Users/Tom/Web/dev/datavis Added to HOSTS file then, in features->Alias Manager, Alias: datavis Path: /Users/Tom/Web/dev/datavis When I go to "http :// localhost/datavis", it displays the directory as expected. When I go to "http: //datavis.local", I get an error: 403 Forbidden: You don't have permission to access / on this server. How can I make it so going to "datavis.local" produces the page? It works when I go to "localhost/datavis" but I'd rather use the .local TLD for my own reasons. Thanks!!
