Installing on headless debian

[sapabt]

Hello all,

I've run Xampp in the past, and have recently attempted to install (version 5.6.3.0) it on a headless debian server. I've run the security and assigned passwords. I http to the server and I get Access forbidden.

Code: Select all

Access forbidden!

New XAMPP security concept:

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

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

I've searched through the boards, and the configs appear to be correct. I'm on a local network.

httpd-xampp.conf

Code: Select all

#<IfDefine PHP4>
#LoadModule php4_module        modules/libphp4.so
#</IfDefine>
#<IfDefine PHP5>
#LoadModule php5_module        modules/libphp5.so
#</IfDefine>

# We will enable it by default
#<IfDefine PHP>
   LoadModule php5_module        modules/libphp5.so
#</IfDefine>

LoadModule perl_module        modules/mod_perl.so

I'm sure I'm missing something dumb.

I'm on a local network.

But not on "localhost". "Require local" means "Require localhost". The Xampp Adminpages (http://localhost/xampp) cannot be reached from a different PC in a LAN (even if it is "local network"). As long you have no own content in htdocs, the index.php redirects to Xampp Administrations - therefore you receive the error message.

Either delete that configuration from httpd-xampp.conf, or substitute "Require local" by an appropriate "Require Ip <LAN-IP>", where <LAN-IP> matches to your local LAN IPs (for example 192.168.0 - you may shorten the IP, this matches to all IPs beginning with 192.168.0).

See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/ ... ml#require

Hi Nobbie,

I tried the require Ip 192.168.1.0, removed the require statement, even rem'd out all the Locationmatch lines. Restarted after each change, still get the error page.

I'm changing the http-xampp.conf file in /opt/lamp/etc/extra. Is that the right location? It's the only one I've found so far.

Cheers,
