Accessing Xampp remotely working but not internally

[sixfootjames]

I've followed the instructions I found here to be able to access my Xampp installation from the outside (http://community.apachefriends.org/f/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=41118&p=232796#p232796) but I am having problems accessing it internally within our own office. Would there be a reason for this happening?

These are my settings inside of the httpd-xampp.conf file.

# Close XAMPP sites here
<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8
ErrorDocument 403 /error/HTTP_XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

Thank you.

We can't answer that without knowing anything about your paths, URLs, internal IPs or log file Infos (access.log, error.log). Sorry.

Thanks Altreas. I'm assuming it is safe enough to delete everything in my log files and then run it for a short bit and send you the data? The Access.log file is about 300Mb at the moment.

[Altrea]

Sure. From the access log we just need the relating entries of the specific requests.

Hi Altrea.

Hope this is enough?

[sixfootjames]

Any thoughts on this one Altrea?

[Nobbie]

You see this error:

> File does not exist: G:/Websites/Xampp-1.7.7/htdocs/arystanjakam

Is there a file arystanjakam in G:/Websites/Xampp-1.7.7/htdocs? And why does it not have any extension?

[sixfootjames]

Hey Nobbie. That was me typing the project name incorrectly.
To answer your question, all of these projects are WordPress sites with permalinks switched on so the extension won't show.

Ok - in fact this is a WordPress Problem and not a Xampp Problem. We do not support WordPress here.

[Altrea]

I can't see any relating request entries from your internal clients to identify the problem, so providing help is difficult.
Could be anything between a router problem and webapplication problem.
