Blane Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hello, recently I installed XAMPP (or how it spells anyway), cause I was boring to install PHP, Apache & MySQL one-by-one.Even if the installation finished normally now the only thing that I get when I click http://localhost is a page which says "It works".Nothing more, nothing less.I can't change it.I looked everywhere.And here's what I've already done: Unistall/Reinstall (Nothing changed). Deleted the cookies from Firefox/IE. Looked everywhere in the folders. Moved my own website in the root folder and the htdocs folder. Nothing from the above helped me though.I wait here for serious answers.No spam please, -Blane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phreak Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Go to C:/xampp/htdocs and you put your files there. Edit the HTML page and you will see that it will change. hf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizZy™ Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I bet you have teamviewer opened 24/7.. Port is taken by teamviewer ,msn,skype or w/e. But usually ,teamviewer uses :80 and when u type ur local ip 127.0.0.1:80 aka localhost ,it shows status of teamviewer's port. Had same problem :) Also ,im a xampp fan ,so there is a xampp-portcheck.exe ,use it ,it tells process that the port is taken by :] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Go to C:/xampp/htdocs and you put your files there. Edit the HTML page and you will see that it will change. hf Agree add your files there and try again. The default index.htm file has this text "It works!" change it to your own. If that doesn't work then try to re-setup xampp and relocate the folder its in.If that doesn't work either try to download the latest version of xampp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
