Hi community! it's me again hehe.
I have my server+database+website up and running at my own computer,
i have a pc im planning to let 24/7 online so i was wondering, if i buy a domain is it possible to host the website in my own computer, what software shoul i use and what ports should i open, i really appreciate your help,
Thanks!!:rolleyes:
 
U Dont Need To Buy Domain If u Would like To Get A Domain Like Sytes.net Zapto.org And So on you Can Got It Free From No-ip.com and Make the Dns On Domain.
 
The problem with home hosting is the internet speed and specs of a home computer, plus the dynamic IP (24h disconnect)
So if you try to host at home a domain will be waste since a domain is not updating that quickly like a no-ip.org or such.
For example:
You bought a domain, set the ip now everything is fine until your next disconnect.
If you got a new ip you will have to update the domain, which can take up to 1-2 hours or even more.
That would be totally waste. Instead do what @Owner Maydel wrote and get a no-ip.org or zapto.org dns or w/e, they update in around 10 minutes max.
Thats just 1 click for updating and your server runs well again.
 
Your server is a shit server? :eek: ah thanks for the info bro

What happens when you try to visit your domain/address in your browser?

It is kind of weird something about security appears, it says google cant verify the certificate or something and that it's unsecured, not sure why it says that, i also tried with Mozilla Firefox and is the same. :(
 
Did U Sure Ur Port Is On? otslist.eu/can_i_host And Check if Port 80 Are on
Stop posting things that does not help him solve his problems.. Ports got nothing todo with chrome/firefox saying the site isn't secure.

Do you get the same security error if you try to connect to the website with your local IP?
Do you get to the routers login-interface?

Uninstall XAMPP and install Uniform Server instead, you can follow this tutorial and everything should work.
