title: How do I correctly configure my homestead.yaml file?
body: <p>I am setting up Laravel for the first time.
  Now I have the following information in my homestead.yaml file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>---
  ip: "192.168.10.10"
  memory: 2048
  cpus: 1
  provider: virtualbox
  
  authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
  
  keys:
  - ~/.ssh/id_rsa
  
  folders:
  - map: C:/Users/MyName/Documents/web/sites
    to: /home/vagrant/sites
  
  sites:
  - map: consulting.app
    to: /home/vagrant/sites/consulting
  
  databases:
  - homestead
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>where Homestead is installed at C:\Users\MyName\Documents\web\Homestead and I have a folder called "sites" at the same level, containing a "consulting" folder with a index.php in it.</p>
  
  <p>However, when I call <a href="http://consulting.app" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://consulting.app</a> in my browser, the page cannot be found. Same, when I append :8000 at the end of the url.
  I also configured the hosts file to</p>
  
  <h1>192.168.10.10       consulting.app</h1>
  
  <p>and after that ran vagrant provision</p>
  
  <p>I really can't help myself anymore an I am glad for any help. Thanks!</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:
  Now that I've changed my</p>
  
  <pre><code>- map: C:/Users/MyName/Documents/web/sites
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>to </p>
  
  <pre><code>- map: ~/Documents/web/sites
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can access my page via localhost:8000, but that way only..</p>
