[solved] Very strange problems on LAN

Hello!

I've setup and used XAMPP for some time on my local server. I've got a number of "websites" working locally (htdocs subfolders) which anyone on my LAN can access to (typing Local.IP.address/website). But from a few days ago, there are certain websites that can't be viewed from the LAN, still I can see them from my server (either typing localhost/website or Local.IP.address/website). It's not a global problem, it happens only with a number of websites.

Anyone can help me? I can't figure out where the problem might be

Hi,

Without knowing the websites myself i can't say much to this issue.
Do you use VHosts for each websites? Maybe it's a vhost configuration issue.
Can be a webapplication configuration issue too
or a mod_rewrite configuration issue
or a .htaccess configuration issue

i don't know where to start without any information.

best wishes,
Altrea

Hello Altrea, thanks for your reply!

Well, maybe you didn't know were to start from, but you gave me some things to think about.

I don't use VirtualHosts, I view the websites typing the IP of the server on the LAN, so it was not the problem. mod_rewrite was not active, so it wasn't the problem either. I thought it wasn't a problem with .htaccess, because I had not modified it. So I looked at the web application (Prestashop) and I did search in their forums and I found the solution modifiying an option in the backoffice.

So thank you very much. Maybe you didn't gave me the solution, but you told me where to find it. I thought it was a problem with xampp but it was instead with my web application.

Again, thank you very much

I'am
