I don't understand why running a wampserver application remotely got so difficult. In previous version, if you put the server online, everything works perfectly. Since I installed the version 2.5 it's so complicated. My problem is this, I want to configure wampserver 2.5 so that clients in my local network run my wampserver application installed in a hp proliant ML350e Gen8 server configured with windows server 2008 R2. I tried many times,Now I'm tired. Can you help me please?
WAMPServer is configure as a single seat developer tool and therefore by default Apache is configured to accept connections from only the PC that is running WAMPServer. This is to protect the novice from accidentally allowing access to their system from the internet.
However changing it to allow access from anywhere should be quite simple. All you should need to do is as you say you did i.e. Put Online
What this actually does is amend a piece of the httpd.conf file from
# onlineoffline tag - don't remove
Require local
To
# onlineoffline tag - don't remove
Require all granted
You can manually check that that is what your httpd.conf file actually looks like now.
However a better solution in your case would be to manually edit the httpd.conf file ( using the wampmanager menus )
wampmanager -> Apache -> httpd.conf
And change the above statement to
# onlineoffline tag - don't remove
Require local
Require ip 192.168.0
For example, assuming that your subnet starts with those 3 quartiles.
This would allow access only form your network and not the universe as Require all granted would do.
Of course you would also need to add an exception to any firewall running on the PC where WAMPServer is installed so that access is not blocked on TCP port 80.
