im trying to learn php and i downloaded the wamp server, installed it and such. but when i tried to put it online it wouldnt do so. ive tried to change the port skype is on/ or uses (still didnt work) tested port 80, said i didnt actually use port 80. im not sure what else to do if any one can help me to fix this that would be great :mellow:

I think port 80 is a default closed port for some modems and routers, you need to go to the router (type in your IP) if a router/modem page pops up then you need to do some configuring and you will NOT be able to access your site from your home network. I have never actually gotten this to work on my modem from quest but you may also want to try localhost. If your site appears it's a network error and not your computer (however since it's a windows computer it might some glitch). If it still doesn't work you need to edit httpd.conf and change the port to another port (reminder when changing ports the url changes to url:port ex port 8080 becomes localhost:8080. If it works then you may need to try port 80 from a computer not attached to your network (that is if you have a router).

If you still can't get it to work please post if you have a router or modem and what type of firmware it uses. This will allow people to help you better.

Thanks,
Sparkx

It's usually a problem that something is blocking the way to you, try using a different port for testing purposes or something like that, but usually it should work. :mellow:

WampServer problems???... :o

This software named WampServer install a complete Windows Webserver in your local computer. By Default the WampServer comes with an awful configuration.

I recommend you that you open an free account in and Free Web Hosting, preferibly http:www.0fees.net once you are in your Cpanel you have to click on "PHP Info" where all the 0fees.net paramethers are shown.

Start your Wampserver...Click the Wamp server icon closer than watch and click on "PHP" here you have to change the Wampserver´s configuration and put it exactly than 0fees.net configuration.

Once you have made this, prove your scripts again...And you will tell me...

Bye and Good Luck.

Mitch666Holland, in this topic, asked for help.
You reply saying that 0fees.net people know their job.
You don't answer the question.
If you think that the solution is "php info" please post the solution here.
If you don't want to post the solution, please avoid spoiling this topic.
Moreover, I'm pretty sure you are wrong, I'm sure the problem is not inside the php configuration, but inside the Apache configuration. In that case, the solution would be correctly configuring the listening port, replacing localhost with the Internet name of the Wamp Server machine.

Depending on your dls router, you might not be able to open a qualified domain name for an machine on the internal network. The only way around this is to use a web proxy to confirm your able to access your pages.

This happens with a number of different dls routers. IF you cannot access your pages from an external source, then you need to configure port forwarding on your router to forward whatever ports you are using (usually 80), to the internal network IP of the machine your using. This will mean you need to have a static IP address on the machine you have the lamp stack on.

As a side note, i downloaded wamp, installed it on my vista box, forwarded ports from my router to the correct IP, checked firewall settings to confirm they allowed both inbound and outbound trafic on said ports and was able to access everything internally and externally without a hitch.

If you're still having trouble, post again with as much details as you can outlining the procedures you have followed, with install and configuration of your network. Oh and don't forget to check your file permissions, I am not sure how pedantic apache will be in windows about permissions, but it might be an area for trouble.

Have a look at the apache server setting, namely the "listen" parameters. Very often, the "Listen" parameter, which is the address on which the server is listening on, is "localhost", this means that the apache server is listening only on the "localhost" port.
If you want the server to listen to the true IP address, you must put this IP address instead of localhost at the Listen parameter. If you have a dynamic IP address, put your PC name, or change the IP address in the Listen parameter each time your IP changes...

Yes, as Fury told its the router's problem, it is blocking the IP address and shows 403 error. As told check the IP on proxy website or check from external source (other PC).
And to check if ports are forwarded use this website. To solve the problem of dynamic IP get no-ip subdomain and install their software to update the latest IP to the sub domain.

By the way I would like to ask a question. My router administration control panel doesn't allow to specify port forward on individual ports, there is only DMZ host, which opens all the ports. And I am too the in same problem, the router blocks the IP, so I have to use proxy website to check the website online. I have specified my internal static IP for the DMZ host. Since all ports are open, there is lot of risk of attacks. I am using good firewall. So are the firewalls enough or are there any other loop holes which DMZ leaves open?

The simplest solution would be to get a better router that will allow you to forward ports to a selected machine, by dmz'ing all ports, this leaves other machines open on your network, which is not really good practice, because the point here, is to only expose the bare minimum of your internal network, to the internet.

I have also gave permissions to access so I am at a loss and pulling my hair out can anyone help me please!

Thanks

Terri

Access forbidden!

New XAMPP security concept:

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

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

If you think this is a server error, please contact the [email=postmaster@localhost]webmaster[/email].

I'm trying to make a web server for my project using wamp. already have a page, when i tried to access my localhost and IP on my own computer, it really worked fine. The page is viewed as expected.

But when i used a different computer to access the server on my computer it displays "Connection Interrupted

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again."

The port 80 is probably blocked. Confirm by checking here http://www.canyouseeme.org/ Check firewall settings.

To just add my 2 cents to the topic, on windows installing Wampserver is usually an easy task, the most common problems is that localhost does not work, so you need to use 127.0.0.1 if working locally, it maybe be due to proxy settings or firewall settings or similar reasons.. Second common reason for Wampserver not working is software like Skype, which is using port 80 and wampserver does not work, you need to make Skype through preferences to not use the port 80.. Of course port 80 can be used by other software too.. :(

The IP address 192.168.2.109 is your internal IP address. It is used to locate your PC in your network if you have many PC's connected. The IP address 222.127.160.25 is your external IP address. A person who wants to access your website, needs the external IP address. So, you should be using 222.127.160.25 IP address to access your website from another PC.

Coming to the problem you are facing, as mentioned above check your firewall settings if its blocking port 80. Also, check router settings page (192.168.1.1) and see if the port is blocked. In some cases your ISP may disallow hosting websites on 'home internet packages'. So, confirm that with your ISP. If it does, then you need to change the port the webserver (Apache) uses for connecting to internet.

Read the above posts if you have not already, most of it has been discussed in detail by the members.

How to solve wampserver port problem in windows vista?Wamp Server Problems

Thanks to you all, I had same problem and it is solved.

or

in case of wamp:

hi thanx to u all... now i've got a different problem..
when i access my website the images are not loaded but its working well when im in a localhost...
i think its in the config or something but i don't know how can i change the relative address of images.

   Fri Sep 18, 2009    Reply         

You can do search and replace for the pc relative paths to site relative paths on your html pages. But first you have to know how your images are spread on your sites server (localhost). Are all the images present in a specific folder? If so, do a search and replace for the 'images folder path' on the html pages. Dont include the trailing slash in your 'search and replace' query if the images folder is present in root of your localhost (example: D:/xampp/htdocs/images).

For searching across multiple files you can use Inforapid or Multiple File Search and Replace 2.2.
If you have doubts about the path types have a read at this one.

@jonnahlynb29e: The issue you are facing most probably is not a WAMP server related problem. So if you have any more doubts or issues please post it in a new thread.

Wamp server portWamp Server Problems

The problem with Wamp under windows is mainly due to the fact that people want to keep on using IIS server which is using port 80 as default.

To get it working on port 82 for example change the apacheapache-versionconfhttpd.Conf to replace 80 by 82

ServerName localhost:82

Listen 82

But if we want the Wamp menu to  work  we need also to modify the wamp manager files

wampmanager.Ini

wampmanager.Tpl

In these files modify all the occurrence of

http://localhost/ by http://localhost:82

Alain

WAMP SERVER - ERROR 26 Unrecognized CommandWamp Server Problems

Hi,

I have just downloaded and installed Wamp Server, using the default installation option for everything.

Although I have a fully white semi-circle and everything appears normal, I cannot access either Localhost or phpMyAdmin. Both options simply display a blank screen with the words "0026 Unrecognized Command". However, the MySQL options works fine.

I've tried the usual remove/re-install via different source, to a new folder, but to no avail.

My computer is around 1 year old (Dell running WIndows XP professional). 

Anyone got any ideas ?

Many thanks,

Pete
