yes I've also changed, but i still get 403 error
OK, but after many hours, I've found solution !!!!!!!
----------------------------- COMPLETE SOLUTION ---------------------------------------------------
1, First, Install xampp in your system (i use ubuntu 8.1), dont start it !! (if u are running, stop it by sudo -u root /opt/lampp/lampp stop )
2, OK, my Ubuntu account login name is "dungpq", u must replace it by your login name
apache running with www-data account, not root account, so if u mount the windows's xampp drive (Eg. <WinXP>C:\ mount to /media/WinXP/), www-data cannot access this dir => U will get 403 error if u change DocumentRoot to htdocs folder in windows's xampp htdocs
=> U must mount the drive which has windows xampp installed to another folder (which www-data can access)
I will mount it to /home/dungpq/WinXP
Before mount WinXP to /home/dungpq/WinXP, u must unmount this
sudo -u root umount /media/WinXP
ok, now edit fstab
sudo -u root gedit /etc/fstab
place this code in bottom of file
# WInXP drive - DungPQ@informa
/dev/sda6 /home/dungpq/MISC auto rw,exec,auto,user,sync,umask=0000 0 0
now remount this
sudo -u root mount /dev/sda6
Remember !! (sda6 is name of your drive)
ok, now the windows's xampp drive can be accessed by everyone (including www-data)
now edit the httpd.conf file
sudo -u root gedit /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf
Find "/opt/lampp/htdocs" and replace by "/home/dungpq/WinXP/xampp/htdocs"
(u will find 2 line contain it)
save and close this file.
Now start xampp
sudo -u root /opt/lampp/lampp start
go to
http://localhost/, u will access the htdocs folder of windows's xampp !!!!!
But, now, u need use mysql database from windows's xampp, right ?
First stop xampp
sudo -u root /opt/lampp/lampp stop
now create simple bash file, make link from windows's xampp mysql data folder to linux's xampp mysql data folder
#!/bin/bash
# Create link to windows xampp myql data folder
# DungPQ@informa
for i in $( ls "/home/dungpq/WInXP/xampp/mysql/data");
do
if [ $i != "ibdata1" ]; then
if [ $i != "ib_logfile0" ]; then
if [ $i != "ib_logfile1" ]; then
if [ $i != "mysql" ]; then
if [ $i != "phpmyadmin" ]; then
if [ $i != "test" ]; then
ln -s /home/dungpq/WinXP/xampp/mysql/data/$i /opt/lampp/var/mysql/$i;
fi
fi
fi
fi
fi
fi
done
Run it by root access, and all mysql data from windows's xampp will be show in mysql data list of linux's xampp
start xampp again
sudo -u root /opt/lampp/lampp start
OK, now u can use the same htdocs file and database between windows and linux
Thanks
