Hi,
How would we go about installing a second (older) version of PHP along side our current version 7.4.x We need PHP 5.6 but only for a single project. How can i install this older version for just a single project directory? I've seen this feature in CPanel in shared hosting environments and its as simple as clicking a radio buttton. Any ideas??

Re: Sevice apache can not start?

Just trying Laragon for the first time and am also getting this error. I think it's VMware Workstation occupying port 443. However I don't have SSL enabled in Laragon's settings. Any way to fix this?

What is the solution to the problem ?
The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem

I've built the pcntl exension to work with PHP 7.1 64-bit on Windows. The extension is compatible with Unix pcntl api, but is not functional yet as it will take much time to convert Unix's signals to Windows procees model.
However, you can add it to your PHP's extension to overcome the extension-missing stopper.

Download:

Thread Safe - your PHP's version doesn't have -nts-:
php_pcntl-0.1-7.1-ts-vc14-x64.zip

Creating a multisite works flawless. However I'd like to use domain mapping on my subdomain based installation. I use the preferred plugin to do that and set the IP address in that to localhost. But whatever I try I always end up in the webroot listing my site folders. What would I need in order to get this going?

Hello,
When I want to install a local multi-site wordpress in Laragon I get the error message “Error: You cannot install a network of sites with your server address.” please see this capture. Changing the port number to 81 does not solve the problem.
I can’t continue with the installation. What can I do?
Thank you, greetings.

Hi, I am on Windows 7 64bit and I am testing a WordPress multisite installation. When I create a new site as a subdomain from the WordPress network admin in the form of testsite.multisite.test and set the appropriate entry in the hosts file (127.0.0.1 testsite.domain.test) the subdomain redirects to a Laragon home page screen. Am I doing anything wrong?

I have SSl enabled in Apache and added the laragon.crt to the trust store. When I open www > sitename.test, I would like to have it open as https://sitename.test. I edited the auto.sitename.test.conf file to add https:// to the define SITE statement, but this didn't open the site in https://. I can manually type https://sitename.test in the browser address bar and that does work. What do I need to do to automate this?

Hey there.

I'm trying to run a queue:work with the --queue parameter but it's not working.
If I don't set the --queue=emails parameter, everything works (in the default queue)

Example command that works:

Queue: autorun php artisan queue:work PWD=...

Example command that does not work:

Queue: autorun php artisan queue:work --queue=emails PWD=...

How can I set those parameters in the command (--queue or --tries or --timeout)?

Thanks

Adding another MySQL version is very easy and safe with Laragon.
Hint: This tutorial also applies for MariaDB.
https://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/10.2.6/#os_group=windows
[Download the MariaDB 64-bit version]

Download MySQL 5.7 (64-bit) or 32-bit:
https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.7/mysql-5.7.18-winx64.zip Extract the downloaded to: {LARAGON_ROOT}\bin\mysql\mysql-5.7.18-winx64 (see below Note for MariaDB) C:\laragon -- bin -- mysql -- mysql-5.7.18-winx64 -- ............. Select the new version at: Laragon Menu > MySQL > Version > mysql-5.7.18-winx64

Very easy huh. That's all forks!

Note: If you use MariaDB, extract it to: {LARAGON_ROOT}\bin\mysql\mariadb-10.2.6-winx64, Laragon will automatically create correspond DataDir for MariaDB on data/mariadb

Tools > Wildcard DNS > How to manage Wildcard DNS, will open this forum , but shows access denied. Please help.

I have setup the http://test.192.168.0.2.nip.io/ and it's working locally. How can I access it in my WAN?

In Laragon, I go Menu -> Tools -> WildCard DNS -> How to Manage "WildCard DNS", then my browser opens to https://forum.laragon.org/topic/1014 but it says "Access Denied"

Laragon supports automating nip.io & xip.io configurations.
This tutorial will show you how to use nip.io so you can access your site from local network.

Enable nip.io by clicking:
Menu > Tools > WildcardDNS > nip.io

Checking Laragon's title, you'll see something like {your-private-ip-address}.nip.io

Suppose your project is awesome, you can access your site from local network using this url:
http://awesome.{your-private-ip-address}.nip.io

Note: Reload Apache to make sure.
Troubleshoot: check if the auto generated virtual host in Menu > Apache > sites-enabled contains nip.io:

<VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot "${ROOT}" ServerName ${SITE} ServerAlias *.${SITE}, awesome.171.31.14.166.nip.io <Directory "${ROOT}"> AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory> </VirtualHost>

Hi Team,

Need some quick help in resolving front end issue.
The laragon application services are running but the front end is not coming. We have tried updating the certificates in apache https configs and tried all possiblilties by running the application on another available listener port but still couldn't able to resolve it off.
It just gives us below error
"2018-08-14 11:17:54: Graceful shutdown failed!!! Did you change the root's password? - trying to force it shutdown...
ERROR:
2021-08-19 14:03:12: There is an exception: Access violation at address 00406B63 in module 'laragon.exe'. Read of address F06DF2F7"

Application was working until July month and got stopped all of a sudden.
Can I please get some response here. Its very urgent for us to get it fixed.

THANKS
