Can't set up XAMPP virtual host on Mac

Hi

I have been trying to set up virtual host on XAMPP on my mac but I can't get it to work!

When I go to http://z I see the content of /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs while it is supposed to show the content of /Applications/XAMPP/vhosts/z.

What I have done so far:
- Stop MAc server
- Restart XAMPP
- Edit /Application/XAMPP/etc/httpd.conf (for document root and incuding /Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf file

- Edit /etc/hosts
- Edit httpd-vhosts.conf

===================

Code:

bash-3.2# sudo apachectl stop

Code:

bash-3.2# /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/xampp restart
Restarting XAMPP for Mac OS X 1.7.3...
XAMPP: Stopping Apache...ok.
XAMPP: Stopping MySQL...not running.
XAMPP: Stopping ProFTPD...not running.
XAMPP: Starting Apache...already running.
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...ok.
XAMPP: Starting ProFTPD...ok.

/Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra

Code:

bash-3.2# cat httpd-vhosts.conf 
#
# Virtual Hosts

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost _default_:80>
        DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs/"
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/vhosts/z"
        ServerName z
        ErrorLog "/Applications/XAMPP/vhosts/z/local-error.log"
        <Directory "/Applications/XAMPP/vhosts/z">
                Allow from all
                AllowOverride All
                Require all granted
        </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

/etc/hosts

Code:

bash-3.2# cat hosts
##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1	localhost

#Added by XAMPP Control
127.0.0.1 192-168-1-4.tpgi.com.au

bash-3.2#

/Applications/XAMPP/etc/httpd.conf/

Code:

DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/vhosts"

# Virtual hosts
Include /Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

A few points:
1 - It is using with the /etc/hosts file (not /Applications/XAMPP/etc/hosts).
2 - When I go to http://z I see the content of /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs. This means the only thing that is working is the /etc/hosts file and virtual host set up is being ignored!
3 -http://localhost shows the content of /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs
4 - http://vhosts goes to Google.com
5 - Also why did you ask me to use /etc/hosts and not /Applications/XAMPP/etc/hosts?

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Than kyou.
