issue with vhosts file when swapping Apache versions (1 reply)

Hello

I have Wampserver 3.3.3 along with Apache 2.4.46 and 2.4.58.1

httpd-ssl.conf in both Apaches is vanilla except for change to point to my own document root directory and SSL cert and key directory.

httpd-vhosts.conf has a default VirtualHost *:80 at the top and then a whole bunch of VirtualHost *:443 following, all also using my own document root directory.

According to Wampserver "tools" Apache is listening to port 80. The tools wont allow me to add port 443

The issue I have is that when I swap from one Apache to the other I get the dialog that the two vhost files are different even when they aren't, and if I just hit Enter which is supposed to be "no changes" the vhosts file in the "new" apache gets altered or overwritten, with all the port *.443 replaced with *:80

Of course it is easy to just change it back the way it should be and restart Apache, but it is irritating.

What have I got configured wrong?

Thanks.
