Solve : web hosting with xammp 1.7.3. help?? |
|
Answer» Okay, so I've READ about 15 tutorials on how to make a SERVER using apache and xammp. I have some previous experience with xammp on trackmania servers (MySQL, THOUGH), used some of that too. So, I secured my folder, all the basic stuff, put the WEBSITE files to htdocs folder, opened http://localhost/index.html and all works. The problem is that no one else can access it (asked a few friends to try to open it, but they say they can't). I have a Thomson router (not sure which model exactly) and I forwarded the port 80. STILL, when using PFPortChecker, the port 80 is blocked... any help?In your reading of tutorials, did you learn about how a self-hosted website could work as far as domain name registration is concerned? All websites, i.e. domain names, have to be registered with a domain name registrar. I'm assuming you want your website to be accessible on the Internet by anyone. |
