    I think your question is split into 2 things: The ability to use http://vignesh as opposed to http://localhost:8080, and the option to change the default home page.

    In order to get the url that you want working, you need to modify a file in windows (assuming you’re on windows 7) do the following:

    1. Launch notepad (or any other text editor) with administrative privileges
    2. Open the hosts file located at: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
    3. Add the following entry to it: 127.0.0.1 vignesh

    In order to change the default page you need to change the apache configuration.

    1. Open httpd.conf in your favorite text editor
    2. Locate the property called DirectoryIndex. Change it to the page that you want.

    I hope that was helpful.
