I have got lucee-express-5.0.0.235-RC running on a mac with XAMPP. I have created a few virtual hosts with XAMPP in the httpd-vhosts.conf file, changed my hosts file, etc. got everything working. The websites in PHP open fine. But I want to get multiple Lucee websites running as wel. And here is the problem. I read (and I suppose) that in the server.xml file you need to copy the part and change the name and context path to the proper local domain and files. So multiple websites means multiple 's in the server.xml file. This does not seem to work, the Lucee server just don’t start. I get the errors:

Hi Dick,
Nothing wrong with the server.xml, but did you also create the file $catalina_base/conf/Catalina/local.mysite.nl/ROOT.xml file? That’s where the context-specific xml config should be in.
(Re. the “$catalina_base”: the server.xml is at $catalina_base/conf/server.xml)
Thanks for all the help. So I have to create a folder and an xml file for every domain? I tried mod_cfml but that gave errors as well, downloaded the new XAMPP, should give it a try again. I wanted to reply earlier, but I got an error on this board as well. Errors seem to hunt me these days…
