Answer 1

Edit /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1       localhost
127.0.1.1       myname-desktop
127.0.0.1       myname.projectname.dev

Then /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf (or wherever you have it)

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin [email protected]
    DocumentRoot "/opt/lampp/htdocs/projectname"
    ServerName myname.projectname.dev
    ErrorLog "logs/myname.projectname.dev-error_log"
    CustomLog "logs/myname.projectname.dev-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>

Then in the xampp config /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf uncomment the httpd-vhosts.conf file:

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