I am very new to laravel, I am using windows 7 OS. I have a PHP website made on laravel 5 which I want to run on my browser. I have gone through the videos and the various website on "How to run laravel 5 project on browser" but unfortunately I failed to run my project on the browser. I am using XAMPP and below is my Virtual Hosts file of apache. My localhost port is 7000.
<VirtualHost *:7000>
DocumentRoot "C:\xampp2\htdocs\basicwebsite\public"
ServerName basicwebsite.com
</VirtualHost>
And inside the hosts file within the system32 folder I have put the following line
127.0.0.1 basicwebsite.com
When I am trying to run it on my browser it gives me an error
"This site can’t be reached
basciwebsite.com refused to connect."
Any help is welcome.
