I keep trying to configure it so that the domain symfony.local would link to the app_dev.php, but I also keep getting forwarded to the xampp page.
My hosts file is:
127.0.0.1 symfony.local
My httpd-vhost is:
<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "C:\xampp\htdocs"
    ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName symfony.local
    DocumentRoot "C:\xampp\htdocs\testAS\web"
    DirectoryIndex app_dev.php
   <Directory "C:\xampp\htdocs\testAS\web">
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        allow from all
        <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
            RewriteEngine On
            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
            RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /app_dev.php [QSA,L]
        </IfModule>
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I'm using Windows 8. Appreciate any feedback.
