When Xampp listens to port 80, my website wont work

[Johnny Zoo]

Hey guys,

I've been having this problem for about 4 years and I still haven't found a solution.
For my website I'd like to use port 80 since it's the default port for websites. So I forwarded port 80, 443 and 3306.
When I go to my website e.g. myots.no-ip.org there appears a window which asks me to fill in a username and password (just as when I log in to my router page, tho that pass doesn't work here). So.. nobody can view my website.

I've found an alternative that works pretty good. I changed the listening port from xampp to 7002. So I forwarded port 7002. If I go to myots.no-ip.org:7002 my website works perfectly and other people can view it too.
But the only bad thing is, that they always gotto type ':7002' after it, and that looks sooo unprofessional.

Does anyone know how I can make port 80 work for my website ?

Yours,

Johnny Zoo

MAybe your ISP blocks port 80?
Check that with em

Omg this is weird:
Error: I could not see your service on (ip) on port (7002)
Reason: Connection timed out
Error: I could not see your service on (ip) on port (80)
Reason: Connection timed out
Error: I could not see your service on (ip) on port (7171)
Reason: Connection timed out
Error: I could not see your service on (ip) on port (7172)
Reason: Connection timed out
Success: I can see your service on (ip) on port (3306)
Your ISP is not blocking port 3306

But my website and my OT are accesible for everybody :O
Website only on port 7002 tho

After spending hours and hours trying to find out why Port 80 was blocked I found out my ISP blocks it I asked them to unblock it and they denied it saying it was in there policy xD

Don't matter though 8080 or 8090 is just as fine.

When u use 8080 or 8090, do u have to type ':8080' next to ur website ?

Not if you change Default port in Apache configs

If you have problems with 80 port, and you 8080 port is opened, then you need to type http://website.com:8080

No you can change the port in configs and you wont need to type :8080

Well i had that problems few months ago, and there's no way to go on website, without type :8080...

Where can I change the default port ? I mean which file in which folder of xampp? ^^

 

[JoccE]

http.conf or whatever it's called

 

[Johnny Zoo]

in http.conf I changed all '80's to '7002's so it looks likes this:

#Listen 0.0.0.0:7002
#Listen [::]:7002
Listen 7002

ServerName localhost:7002

And now I can go to mywebsite.com:7002
But not just to mywebsite.com
I reall have to put ':7002' next to it

There should be a file named Host.somthing? or hosts.something also

 

[Johnny Zoo]

In apache/conf/extra is a file called httpd-vhosts.conf
Do you mean this one ?

Dunno if you google it i'm sure there is a guide for it, was some years ago i did it

In that file, is this port 80?

##<VirtualHost *:80>

 

[Johnny Zoo]

Ye it is,
Should I change it to my working port?

No, you don't need to change that port. Well i will try to find solution on google.:huh:

i had the same problem. you just need to enable DMZ on your modem home page, Modem/firewall/Assign the DMZ to a local network device.

description about this feature:
DMZ
This screen allows you to allocate the IP address of one of your LAN devices to by pass the firewall and NAT of the Technicolor Gateway. This is commonly used for Games consoles or servers.

Status: enabled

and thats it!! u wont need to type :8080
