Firstly, I am sorry for bad English Language
I want to make a site using wp on local with xampp 3.2.2 (win10)
To avoid future problems (e.g changing domain after moving to live or changing media file path in db) i stablish a virtual host & a subdomain by putting this code in httpd-vhosts.conf
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName xyz.com
ServerAlias xyz.com
ServerAdmin [email protected]
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/xyz"
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName dl.xyz.com
ServerAlias dl.xyz.com
ServerAdmin [email protected]
DocumentRoot "C:/XAMPP/htdocs/xyz/dl"
</VirtualHost>
& this code to httpd.conf
Alias /xyz "C:/XAMPP/htdocs/xyz/"
<Directory "C:/XAMPP/htdocs/xyz/">
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
- then i check subdomain to making sure it's working by making simple index.html to "dl" DIR (dl.xyz.com) & work Properly.
- then I install wp and after some configuration I follow this article step to change WordPress default upload path:
https://www.webnots.com/move-wordpress-images-folder-to-subdomain/
This is my database change:
upload_path:
C:/xampp/htdocs/xyz/dl/uploads
upload_url_path:
http://dl.xyz.com/uploads
I change "dl" DIR permission As described here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mX2WsUfW_x4 In this way: dl Folder properties >> sharing Tab >> Advanced Sharing >> check share this folder >> Permissions >> select Everyone as username >> check Allow option for "full Control" "Change" "Read" this is 777 permissions
now when i want to upload file to media this error appeared:
Unable to create directory C:/xampp/htdocs/xyz/dl/uploads/2019/02. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
