Hay all
I just an answer for this I have made a server using the xampp and I made the site but I can only open the site from my computer and I access to it only by 127.0.0.1
so how can I change the url to the server name?
(someone told me that I can't change it but when other players try to open the server it will work with them using my ip or my host name)
please I need a solution to this with full explanation please (I'm new)
and thank you all
 
It's normal you can't acces your website with your global ip if you connect from the computer you use to host the website.
Use 127.0.0.1 or your IPv4 address. If other people can acces your website with your global ip, then it all works fine.
 
What is the IPv4 ?
and when players try to enter my website with my ip it just says to them Error 403 so how can I fix that ?

Do you have any website/ACC MAKER installed? make sure that you have available the 80 ports (they're used to other people can access to your website)
 
THanks for all that respond
First I'm using xampp for the server and the website
and I'm using no-ip.com for host my ip
but what is the ACC MAKER ?
and how can I turn on the 80 ports ?

second this is what showed to me when I wrote the ipconfig in cmd

C:\Documents and Settings\XPPRESP3>ipconfig

Windows IP Configuration


Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.100
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

so which one is the IPv4 ?
 
Windows XP SP3


and how can I port 80 to the website ?


and one more thing now I'm on the site with URL 127.0.0.1 and I'm trying to access the admin account that I made in step 5 but I can't can you tell me how to fix that ?
 
but still I can't make players access to my website they say it shows to them Error 403 no matter how I tried to fix it the same problem
and how can I make the port 80 ?
 
Error 403 thats a error for Forbidden access.

Can be several things causibg this error.

1. Remote Managment is enabled on your router ( for outside modifications on the router ).

2. Something in the server files that reject everything expect localhost?

I hope something of that helps.
 
There are various port forwarding tutorials in the tutorials section, you should take a look there.
