XAMPP won't run other php files other than its own index.php

Postby cladd118 » 18. January 2014 01:04

I'm trying to run an php-based api utility created by my company. I had to set XAMPP to listen on port 8080 to work around the ISS port 80 issue (apache does execute). I understand the server directory is /xampp/htdocs and when I type http://localhost:8080/xampp/index.php the "XAMPP for WINDOWS" page opens and works. However XAMPP can not find any other objects to be recognized in /htdocs. Just to test this I've created a test.php (extremely simple "Hello World"), type http://localhost:8080/xampp/test.php ,and I get the below. I've even copied XAMPP's default index.php, named it index1.php, type http://localhost:8080/xampp/index1.php and still Object not found. I've opened all options in Apache's httpd.conf DocumentRoot <Directory/> setting (desperate move), no luck. Any ideas??

Object not found!

http://localhost is the same as your XAMPP/htdocs folder. So if you are typing localhost/xampp then you are requesting XAMPP/htdocs/xampp
