I cannot see my site!

Postby dx4 » 01. April 2011 08:39

I've got a green running on apache, I also forwarded 80 and 443 ports on my router and when I try to see my page on another computer (not on the same network) I can't see anything, it says the page don't exist. What could be the problem?

What are you typing in the browser of the other PC?

On the PC that XAMPP is installed on what do you see when you type http://localhost in your browser?

Any clues in the \xampp\apache\logs\error.log file?

I see normally the xampp interface and when I type localhost/index.html I see the default page "it works", but when I try that from another pc I don't see anything...

http://localhost/index.html or http://localhost will only work on the PC that XAMPP is installed on - so you will have to use the LAN IP from other PC on the LAN or the IP address of your PC from the Internet.

I type a dyndns address that is pointed to my IP address on the other computer.

And this is the latest entry on the error.log file everything looks fine I think...
