wamp/Apache - new virtual host that exists outside of /wamp/www

Question

My httpd-vhosts.conf file looks something like this. I am trying to create 2 virtual hosts. One of the projects exists within the default document root, while the other is off on another hard drive altogether.

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com
    DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www/project1/public_html"
    ServerName p1.localhost
    ServerAlias www.p1.localhost
    ErrorLog "logs/p1.localhost.log"
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com
    DocumentRoot "E:/Other Media/www"
    ServerName pn.localhost
    ServerAlias www.pn.localhost
    ErrorLog "logs/pn.localhost.log"
    CustomLog "logs/pn.localhost.log" common
    <Directory "E:/Other Media/www">
        Options Includes Indexes FollowSymLinks
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

I also added this chunk into my httpd.conf

<Directory "E:/Other Media/www">
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

As expected, the VH in the /wamp/www works file, but the project on my E: drive will not show up!!

Any advice would be appreciated!

Answer 1

I ended up moving everything to EasyPHP. It handles external disk locations MUCH more gracefully.
