Cannot connect to the website

[Jouw]

I'm running a XAMPP 1.5.1 installation. For some reason, whenever I use my Internet IP to connect to the server, I get a blank page. Nothing else. If I use 127.0.0.1 or localhost, it works. What's wrong? Could this be because our Internet is connected on another computer and we are using Windows Internet Connection Sharing so I can also use it on mine?

are u using the service to start xampp, or are u manually opening apache_start.bat?

I have both the Service and Apache running (in xampp_control.exe the Svc checkbox is checked and beside Apache is a "stop" button

hey i got blank page too, after upgrade to 1.5
i installed apache and mysql as services.

the status page works fine, and also phpmyadmin.

so i set my document root in apache config file and my index.htm with no php works. but when i try to access my forum (phpbb integramod) I get a blank page. checked the page source and there's nothing. I am using localhost though. 127.0.0.1 don't even work (firefox says cannot find server)

I'll try to go back to 1.4 and see what happens

next time i should just be happy with what i have...

never upgrade xampp again...
