I have a windows server 2008 VPS with no software installed on it and the only way to connect to it is remote desktop connection so I have to prepare it from scratch.
I installed apache server on it BUT after installing apache:
ON THE VPS:
when i go to localhost i get the "it works!" Home page so this sounds ok.
and "Netstat -a" results shows port 80 ok as following:
From other pc
- can't go to homepage via browser.
NOTE: I don't have a domain but i wish to access via browser using the VPS ip.
nevermind guys it worked now.
I just added port 80 to firewall. I thought that if the port stats is Listening then it is ok but I found out that I have to add the port to the firewall too.

I'm running apache through a clean Ubuntu server VM on Parallels for Mac. I have it set up following this tutorial
But when I try to access it from my mac, I get no response. Ping returns a response, but not viewing the page in chrome.
Here is my vhost file ccminecraft.com.conf
I also tried putting in
192.168.1.108 ccminecraft.com
192.168.1.108 www.ccminecraft.com
into my hosts file on my mac, but that didn't work. nslookup returns that it's searching on google's DNS, which both my mac and router are configured to use. But shouldn't it be going to 192.168.1.108 instead of doing a DNS lookup?
Try telneting the port 80 on your ip#
telnet 192.168.1.108 80 if it doesn't respond you need to reconfigure your firewall or disable it.
service iptables stop
systemd --> systemctl stop firewall
Before usig DNS try with ip# so in :
ServerName put yout_ip# if it works you need to disble the adapter that link you to the internet and just let VM adapter enabled
I installed XAMPP and started the Apache Server and MySQL. However, if I try to access https://localhost/, it just shows a blank page in Firefox. I am on a Windows 10 machine. I already tried to change the localhost port from 80 to 8080, but it says that it cannot open the page this way.
Any ideas what the reason could be?
I have netgear 1500 wifi DSL router having private IP 192.168.1.1. I am running apache 2.4 in my desktop PC having IP 192.168.1.2 and my laptop has an IP 192.168.1.3. While I try to access the apache server as http://192.168.1.2:80/index.html I get a message requested URL /index.html not found, while it shows up properly when I access is as localhost.
I have done port forwarding for port:80 and firewalls are stopped.
I have quickheal running in the same machine in which apache runs. Both machines are windows.
What do I need to do so that I can access the server from my laptop?
I have added the privileges through http.conf also.
I see another problem - when I ping the desktop machine, which runs the server, the request is timed out.
Thanks
The problem has been solved. Skype and antivirus are using port 80. Making apache listen to other port - like 8080 solved the problem.
I learned that apache "does not" share a port with other applications.
Hope someone else might be helped from this.

I'm running CentOS on my server, and I want to forward port of Liferay portal from 8080 to 80. I've changed the server.xml file but I can not connect to portal. Log from Catalina.out is fine, it shows that server started up. I have got also installed httpd on CentOS. netstat -tulpn shows that port 80 is not in use.
I will be thankful for any guide or help.
It's best practice to have Apache or any other webserver of your choice serve port 80/443 and forward traffic to the application server. There's a lot of information all over the internet, my version is in this blog article and the related ones, linked at the bottom of the article.
I installed Apache with WAMP. I want to make my computer as a server for my web page for make some experiment on my web site.But I can`t open my server in Internet. I can see it in http://localhost/mysite/index.html but when I try to reach it in another computer like http://myserverip/mysite/index.html it says server not responding. I am using wireless router and also forwarded to my LAN ip.
A few ideas:
check that apache is bound to your PC's internal IP rather than just localhost - run netstat -an and verify that you have local address 0.0.0.0:80 not 127.0.0.1:80
check that you're definitely forwarding port 80 from the router to your PC
check that you're not firewalling off the traffic, i.e. make sure there's an exception in the windows firewall for port 80 (and 443 if you're using HTTPS), or a program exception for httpd, or even try turning off the firewall temporarily whilst debugging this
find out if your ISP is blocking this - some won't let you run web servers from your home connection; you could try a different web port to see if that helps?
try connecting from some other machine - there could be some proxy configuration that's upsetting looping back into your PC
