Step by Step Install Drupal on Wamp : Add Domain
After reading my post about howto install drupal in localhost with xampp I receive email from a reader via contactform ask me to post about install drupal on Wamp with other facility such as :
- Fake domain (batikweb.com)
- Clean url feature
- Send Email ability
- VirtualHost support
Well, I try to make his wish come true 
Add Domain
I adopt the same way as I use for my tutorial on how to add domain on wordpress.
Download Drupal
Download latest drupal from drupal project.
Save and extract to C:\wamp\www
At the moment I have new folder with name :
drupal-6.14
Rename this folder to drupal .
Setting VirtualHost
Open file :
1. httpd.conf
C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.11\conf\httpd.conf
go to line 466 and remove the # in front of the line.
# Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Save the file.
2. httpd-vhost.conf
C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.11\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf
Add these lines :
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin alam@batikweb.com
DocumentRoot “C:/wamp/www/drupal”
ServerName batikweb.com<Directory “C:/wamp/www/drupal/”>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride all
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Save the file.
Start WampServer.
Open http://batikweb.com
I got these error in drupal
Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\drupal\includes\file.inc on line 902
Great, I use latest wampserver that use php 5.3.0 that deprecated function ereg().
The solution is simple, I’ll post it in next post.
Got to go now, stay health!
