THis is not a xampp problem. I am asking for assistance in configuring a test server. I have a
www.domainname.ca address registered and being forewarded by my domain name registration service provider to a static ip address lik e###.###.###.###/whateverfolder. Problem I am having is after i type in
www.domainname.ca it goes to my site and then changes to the staticipaddress in the url bar. I have the domain name registration people forwarding to that static ip address. I don't know how to change my server configuration to stay at
www.domainname.ca/whateverfolder instead of going to ###.###.###.###/whateverfolder. I have read up on virtual hosts and seemingly successfully configured this in the httpd.conf file of xampp. However I do not know what to do next. I type in my registered
www.domainname.ca and it goes to the forwarding url i provided to my domain name register service provider. Any suggestions, other readings that u can point me to would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
