Can I run two separate environments on the same machine like one server with Vagrant and another one with Xampp?
If I have Vagrant for a project and I will install Xampp, there are some interferences at ports? I can install it without broke the vagrant stuffs?
Thank you.
Hi @giorgiovski
You mean two virtual machines, one managed with vagrant and a second independent one with XAMPP?
If that's the case, you shouldn't have any problems as each VM will have it's own IP address, so no ports collisions.
Now, if you are planning to install XAMPP at the same Vagrant VM...you probably won't need to install any additional services, but configure / enable the ones that Homestead provides.
Or you could just have 2 different vagrant instances...
Initial Configuration & Set Up; Local Development Server; Hosting with Apache; Hosting with Nginx; Hosting with Vagrant ... One additional measure to take in production environments is to disable PHP error reporting and any other....https://surveysinfo.com/sobeys-com-mysobeys-survey/
Hello @marianomoreyra ! Thank you for your time. I strictly want Xamp installed directly on my computer to run a project on local and to run another project with Vagrant. The question is if I can open both of them in the same time and there won't be errors.
Thank you.
@giorgiovski you won’t have any problems then as the vagrant vm works as a totally separate Server with its own services, IP addresses and ports
