virtual server config problem

Hello,
OS: win 98 SE
WEB SERVER: Apache HTTP
DB SERVER: MySQL

With your help, I managed to set up my apache test server and even created two virtual domains mymarket.com and test.com. Suddenly, they don't work anymore allthough I haven't touched the config.
I created an Lmhosts file with the following entry:

127.0.0.1 localhost mymarket.com test.com

An excerpt of httpd.conf is also as follows:

ServerName localhost

NameVirtualHost *

<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/Apache/www/localhost"
ServerName localhost
ScriptAlias /php4/ "C:/php4/"
ErrorLog C:/Apache/www/localhost/logs/localhost-error_log
CustomLog C:/Apache/www/localhost/logs/localhost-access_log common
</VirtualHost>


<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin URL
DocumentRoot "C:/Apache/www/mymarket.com"
ServerName mymarket.com
ScriptAlias /php4/ "C:/php4/"
ErrorLog C:/Apache/www/mymarket.com/logs/mymarket.com-error_log
CustomLog C:/Apache/www/mymarket.com/logs/mymarket.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin URL
DocumentRoot "C:/Apache/www/test.com"
ServerName test.com
ScriptAlias /php4/ "C:/php4/"
ErrorLog C:/Apache/www/test.com/logs/test.com-error_log
CustomLog C:/Apache/www/test.com/logs/test.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

Secondly, I have compiled and tried to run a database sample program that comes with WxWindows. For this I created an ODBC data source as follows:

Data source name: mymarket sample
Host/Server Name (/ip): localhost
Database Name: mymarket
User: myuser

A test is able to connect successfully but the program does not connect. Since no one else in complaining, I'm thinking It has something to do with me. I will appreciate any help with this problem too.

Finally, When I run MySqlWinAdmin on my PC, it tells me Local IP address is 169.254.168.3. What is this address compared to 127.0.0.1 which i used in my Lmhosts file?


Thanks in advance for your help.

1) Are you sure you need to use Lmhosts rather than Hosts?
2) Remove ServerName localhost globally.
3) Set UseCanonicalName to Off.

I don't know what's your problem, so sorry for off point but I just notice something different that you have ScriptAlias /php4/ "C:/php4/" at each vhosts. I don't think, you need to do that since whole are in the same path. If you remove them then PHP will still working..
