Hi,
I'm new to XAMPP but not new to Apache, how do I view my apache root and not the xampp startup page when I direct my domain to my apache server?

After starting Apache and MySQL in the XAMPP control Panel you would go to http://localhost to test the XAMPP installation by selecting your language then exercising the demos and setting any security settings you wish to make in the left menu panel.
Then replace (delete) the 2 index files index.php and index.html in the htdocs folder with the index file and folders of your web site.
Then you once again type http://localhost in the browser and you should now see your web site.
Once that is working correctly then try and use your LAN IP address from another PC on your LAN.
To access the XAMPP Welcome page again you would simply type in your browser:
http://localhost/xampp/index.php
Let me know please how you get on or if you get stuck at the next hurdle.
Good luck
Then you would know that to overcome that obstacle all you need do is rename the original file or folder to allow you to add your own files and folder until you are satisfied that the new additions meet your needs.obiwankenobi wrote:I don't like to delete anything until I know what it is doing.

Good luck and now I suppose you can move forward.
