I've been trying to locate a command that will tell me which version of
the WSL I am running.  The best answer I read was the WSL is tied to the
Windows updates.... which I get regularly.   

I have a vhost in /etc/apache2/sites-available/myframework.dev.conf with
the following excerpt 

... 

DocumentRoot /var/www/html/myframework.dev/public_html
ServerName www.myframework.dev 

... 

I enabled myframework.dev.conf and restarted apache... 

I edited /etc/hosts and added the following 2 lines :  

127.0.0.1       www.myframework.dev [2] 

127.0.0.1       myframework.dev [2] 

When I enter the url www.myframework.dev [2] into my browser, I get a
message: 

THIS SITE CAN’T BE REACHED

I set the file permissions : chmod 755 -R html/ and ownership : chown -R
myuser:myuser html  

I'm sure it much be something simple....   

Note : If I go to localhost in the browser I see a page located at
/var/www/html/index.php 

Any help is much appreciated.
