How to access the webpage from external computers?

[z080236]

This page appears when I type my IP address in my own personal computer.
Access forbidden!

New XAMPP security concept:

Access to the requested directory is only available from the local network.

This setting can be configured in the file "httpd-xampp.conf".

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

I tried to comment the XAMPP security in the "httpd-xampp.conf", changed Deny From All to Allow from All, but still it did not work.

You did save the file and then restart Apache after every edit?

Which IP address are you referring to?

Type cmd.exe in start>Run... then type cd C:\Windows

Then at the command prompt in the Windows folder type ipconfig which should return the IP address to type in your browser.

Best wishes.

yes , I did restart apache, and tried to enter http://localhost/, but now it didn't work, it used to work before.

I commented the XAMPP Security portion in xampp-httpd.conf at the most bottom, and I typed my IP Addr , and it worked. I added a .htacess file in case of precaution.
