如何为子域设置虚拟主机？

Question

I have a sub domain. I want to set up virtual host for it locally using xampp (apache).

For example I want to use test.mywebsite.com I want to run local files by opening this sub domain.

I have tried almost all articles/helping meterials online to setup sub domain for virtual host but in vain.

I tried following but nothing work:

httpd-vhosts.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "E:/xampp/htdocs/project"
ServerName mywebsite.com
ServerAlias test.mywebsite.com

hosts file:

127.0.0.1 mywebsite.com
127.0.0.1 test.mywebsite.com

I'll appreciate for any suggestion/help. Thanks

Edit C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf and add the following lines. Make sure to replace dir with your original document root.

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName  test.mywebsite.com
    DocumentRoot "C:\xampp\htdocs\dir"
    <Directory "C:\xampp\htdocs\dir">
        DirectoryIndex index.php
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Restart apache then edit C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts and add the following line at bottom.

127.0.0.1 test.mywebsite.com
