So if I understand you, this works:
http://127.0.0.1/yourwebsite

But this does not:
http://123.123.123.123/yourwebsite

Is that correct?

I can see it from 127.0.0.1

But not from my public IP.

Assuming your A-records for your domain are pointing at your ip and you have made the right port forwarding settings on your router, the problem must be in the setup of the httpd.conf. Maybe Izzy can tell how Apache grabs the request headers for your web site, but it should be pretty straightforward.
I bet you tried http://<global-ip>/, so what I would do is to get a remote portscan from a site like http://grc.com they have a service called shields up and see if the port you are using to serve your web pages are open, that is if you dont use port 80.
You need to supply more information for the community to troubleshoot your problem Alslo check your dns records with nslookup might give you a clue to where the problem is

[Milkon]

yes, but what should i change in the file?

[Izzy]

You can try this:

Open the xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf file in your text editor.

Add these entries at the end of the file.

Change the details to your own.

C:/xampp/htdocs change this to the path to your htdocs.

123.123.123.123 is your public IP

C:/xampp/htdocs/yourwebsite change this to the path of your web site.

yourwebsitename is the name of your web site - example gamesite

Code: Select all

NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 123.123.123.123:80>
ServerName yourwebsitename
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/yourwebsite"
<Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs/yourwebsite">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride FileInfo
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Did you follow the instructions in robsy's post?
Are you sure that you have set up your router correctly to do what you want to do? Double check your router and firewall configurations.

Check your hosts file in C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc using a text editor. Add your IP if it is not there and follow the instructions included in the file. Google for hosts file for some useful reading.
