here is what I did so far:
I have setup a windows 10 instance
I assigned an Elastic IP
I added rules to the security group
HTTP TCP 80 0.0.0.0/0
Custom TCP Rule TCP 7474 0.0.0.0/0
MYSQL/Aurora TCP 3306 0.0.0.0/0
I assigned the public IP to the domain in the hosted zone as A record
I installed XAMPP 3.2.2
I made sure in httpd.conf
# Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
is active
In httpd-vhosts.conf I entered
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/my_app"
ServerName myapp.cloud
ServerAlias www.myapp.cloud
<Directory "c:/xampp/htdocs/my_app">
AllowOverride All
Require all Granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I also changed hosts on the Windows Server (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc)
127.0.0.1 myapp.cloud
I rebooted the system
I started Apache via XAMPP Panel
Results:
I can access myapp.cloud local on the server with RDP session
I can access the public IP from outside and get the XAMPP screen
I can also access publicIP/my_app and get my application
A ping confirms that port 80 is obviously open (otherwise I wouldnt see the XAMPP screen as well)
I CANNOT access the application by typing myapp . cloud - this results in
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
Also Port 7474 seems NOT open although there is an entry
A port check (http://ping.eu/port-chk/) gives:
myapp.cloud:80 is open
myapp.cloud:3306 is open
myapp.cloud:7474 is CLOSED
Apparently the domain resolves correct as a DNS check returns the correct IP
So my issues:
Port 7474 isnt open although set in security
Cant access myapp.cloud although DNS seems right and port 80 is open and listens. (tested on FF and Chrome)
Any hints are very appreciated,
thanks.
######## EDIT ############# 09-11-2017
The problem of the unconnected IP is solved. It was a wrong DNS setting in my internal router - the router didnt renewed the IP settings. So Internet said DNS is correct but private network didnt - I flushed DNS on my PC but forgot to check the router and there was the problem.
Still struggling with the ports ..

I'm kind of a new Apache user (version 2.4). I'm having trouble configuring the whole thing. My server has an IP address- 192.168.2.10, for example my public IP is 123.123.123.123. In my hosting provider website I did set an A record pointing at 123.123.123.123. My Apache config looks like:
Listen 443
<VirtualHost _default_:433>
# General setup for the virtual host
DocumentRoot "${SRVROOT}/htdocs"
ServerName www.example.com:443
ServerAdmin my#mail.com
ErrorLog "${SRVROOT}/logs/error.log"
TransferLog "${SRVROOT}/logs/access.log"
The problem is I receive ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT all the time. When I tried swaping www.example.com with local IP 192.168.2.5 it KIND OF worked (SSL certificate problems because they are connected to www.example.com, but I managed to see HTTP response. Where seems to be the problem?
EDIT:
I think the problem is I can't use port 443 because it's my routers default managment port. How should I configure it then? I have NAT rule on my router that does forward every :8456 request to 192.168.2.10:443.
I resolved the issue. It was "SSL 3.0" option turned off on my router.
I have read several questions here and still nothing is working.
I am trying to access my test site from a remote computer (either network or wan but i need wan eventually)
I just re-downloaded the newest XAMPP for windows 10.
I can go to localhost (also the other 3 names I setup in the host file to redirect to localhost) and of course 127.0.0.1 (localhost).
If I try and use my ip address of the computer or someone else trys my ip address on their computer, we get page cant be found (from chrome)
If I check apache access logs I see nothing about an access attempt.
Netstat -a shows these two records
TCP 0.0.0.0:80
TCP 0.0.0.0:443
TCP [::]:80
TCP [::]:443
I have gone to Windows Firewall -> Advanced Settings -> Inbound rule. Here it shows that appache has 2 rules, one for UDP and one for TCP allowing all ports.
I have gone to my rounter and port forwarded 80 & 443 (which is what xampp is running on) and still nothing
I even have put my computer in a DMZ. I also turned off the windows firewall. (all back on after testing of course this is dangerous).
Xampp has no locationmatch in xampp-http.conf like other questions.
My vhost file has the directory setup like this:
<Directory "C:/Users/username/Desktop/git repos/stats-website">
AllowOverride All
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
This is my testing rig and I am now testing an API that is being accessed externally before I send it to the production server. I have been at this for 2 days and out of all possibilities
UPDATE
I have solved the issue somewhat. I can now get to it from everything except localhost or 127.0.0.1
In httpd.conf I changed it from just Listen 80 to Listen pcipaddress:80. I thought listen 80 defaulted to binding on more than just localhost
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.
#
Listen 192.168.1.241:80
#Listen 80
How do I do it so it works both localhost and also remote connections?
Wamp Version:2.5
Windows Version:10
Apache Version:2.4.9
Wamp is Green, and its online, and it works when i type localhost, and it work in my local network meaning anyone in my house can access the site , i already port forwarded! but when i try to access my site from outside my network it keeps loading and never works!
Virtual host
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www"
ServerName aaess.tk
ServerAlias www.aaess.tk
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
<Directory "C:/wamp/www">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted <- to allow inet access
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Can someone please help and explain why wamp is blocking outside traffic?
Possibly your ISP is blocking port 80.
Simple Test
You could just change your Port Forwarding.
Instead of forwarding router port 80 to PC port 80, just amend the Routers Port Forwarding to forward Router port 8888 to PC's port 80.
Then access the site using http://aaess.tk:8888
Using this method you can leave your Virtual Host on port 80.
It maybe worth trying a few different port numbers, I have knows ISP's to block port 8000 and 8080 as well as these are the most frequently tried alternative port numbers.
Also if you are getting your internet connection via a central connection in an apartment block or compound of some sort. It maybe that you will not find any port that you can use as the central router will be blocking all ports other than port 80.
I've decided to change the ports for Apache to clear up some conflicts with other applications, and maybe even give IIS a shot in the future. I've run into the problem described below.
The basic context:
WIN 7 x64
XAMPP 1.7.4 (Apache 2.2.17, MySQL 5.5.8, PHP 5.3.5)
So I've changed the default Apache port from 80 to 8080, by changing this in the httpd.conf:
Listen 8080 (was Listen 80)
ServerName localhost:8080 (was ServerName localhost)
In my vhosts file I have:
NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8080
And several virtual hosts defined like this:
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8080>
DocumentRoot "somepath"
ServerName servername
<directory "somepath">
usual stuff here
</directory>
</VirtualHost>
When I try to access the virtual host using the servername defined above it does not work without explicitly specifying the port:
servername:8080
It would also seem that the port defined in the vhosts file does not make any difference, whatever I tried (80, 8080, nothing), it allways requires the port to be given with the server name.
phpinfo() says:
SERVER_PORT: 8080
Apache error logs do not show any errors.
I guess I'm wondering if this is normal behaviour, or there is something I overlooked.
The 80 port is default for browsers so that's why you don't need to access servername:80. In your case it's normal to acces server like this : servername:8080
If your want to access localhost without specify the port number in the URL http://localhost instead of http://localhost:8080.
Open Xampp Control Panel
Go to Config ► Service and Port Settings ► Apache
Replace the Main Port value with 8080.
Save Service settings
Save Configuration of Control Panel
Restart the Apache Server
I have XAMPP installed on my local laptop (Vista) and it works fine. Apache and MySQL are running as services, and I can get to both http://localhost/ and http://192.168.2.2/ without any hassles.
However, if I try accessing the server from another laptop on my internal network by typing in the http://192.168.2.2/ ip address, it errorstimes out. What am I missing here?
When I run Port Check, I get the following:
Service Port Status
==============================================================================
Apache (HTTP) 80 Program: C:\xampp\xampp\apache\bin\httpd.exe
Apache (WebDAV) 81 free
Apache (HTTPS) 443 Program: C:\xampp\xampp\apache\bin\httpd.exe
MySQL 3306 Program: C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin
\mysqld.exe
and when I try telnetting to localhost port 80, that works too. My httpd-vhosts.conf file contains the following lines:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/"
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 192.168.2.2>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/"
</VirtualHost>
Any thoughts?

The problem was that the Windows Firewall had port 80 blocked. To fix this, I opened Windows Firewall, clicked Change Settings, went to the Exceptions tab, and then "Add Port". I set Name to "Web Server (TCP 80)", Port Number to 80, and Protocol to TCP and that was it.
