Problem in creating private instance

WebPageTest Private Instances
1

Hi, I’m trying to create Webpagetest private instance on windows machine.
I’m using Apache version 2.4, PHP version 7 and WPT version 3 .
The WPT configuration in apache config file is the following one:

DocumentRoot “C:/wpt-www/”

Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all denied

<Directory “C:/wpt-www/”>
AllowOverride all
Require all granted


DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

When I’m going to 127.0.0.1 I see the page “It works” instead of WPT page.
Here is the logs:
[Wed Nov 08 17:08:38.199338 2017] [mpm_winnt:notice] [pid 9116:tid 692] AH00455: Apache/2.4.29 (Win64) PHP/7.1.11 configured – resuming normal operations

When I change the WPT section to:
DocumentRoot “C:/wpt-www/”

Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Deny from all

<Directory “C:/wpt-www/”>
AllowOverride all
Order allow,deny
Allow from all


DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

I get error: You don’t have permission to access / on this server. with the following errors:

Can anyone please help?
Thank you!

This appears to be more of an Apache issue than a WPT one, have you reached out to apache forums? If this is your first time setting up a new server I’d suggest just trying to get a simple phpinfo() file to load before you tackle WebPageTest
