I created a virtual host on MAMP PRO 5 like this "mywebsite.test" but it does not open the local site unless I add :8888 so it has to be like this "mywebsite.test:8888" then I changed the Apache port to 80 and whenever I try to get them to local site using "mywebsite.test" is show me the default page of apache "it works!" instead.

I did uncomment this line 

# Virtual hosts
#Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

in 

/private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf

but still not working any solution?

  • Find index.html and replace it. This might help https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20655966/mamp-where-is-localhosts-index-html – Buddy Christ May 29 '20 at 22:27
  • thank you now it show "Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server." when trying to access it using mysite.test – Kamel Labiad May 29 '20 at 22:35
  • I don't get it why this is downvoted – Kamel Labiad May 29 '20 at 22:35
  • Are you using different document root for Virtual host 8888? – Pandurang May 30 '20 at 01:09
  • It is downvoted because it is a very basic question. Search for tutorials on how to install Apache, it will show you how to setup a basic page. https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/getting-started.html. – Nic3500 May 30 '20 at 03:14
  • Your Apache content files are here: https://documentation.mamp.info/en/MAMP-Mac/Preferences/Web-Server/. MAMP provides a nice interface for installation and basic setup, but underneath you have to configure the products themselves. – Nic3500 May 30 '20 at 03:19
  • @Pandurang I don't know what you mean by that but I have multiple sites and I put them under htdocs folder then I am trying to point to each of them with a virtual host – Kamel Labiad May 30 '20 at 11:44
  • This question is not basic MAMP PRO 4 use to work fine but since I upgraded to MAMP PRO 5 I start getting this weird behaviour I have seen other people having same issue too, I am no new to doing this to call myself as a beginner but this is a legit problem I could not find a solution to it – Kamel Labiad May 30 '20 at 11:46

I just found the solution this could be helpful to anyone facing this same problem. After contacting the support they told me to check indexes under Apache tab and it works

enter image description here

make sure the Apache port is at 80 and not 8888
