xampp static ip

This is a screen shot of my windows features

I don’t know what to suggest, other than the 404 page in the image is clearly an IIS document, and the path being referenced in the error message is “C:\inetpub\wwwroot”, not XAMPP. If you don’t have any instance of IIS installed or running, I can’t think of anything else that would make a browser automatically look in “C:\inetpub\wwwroot” for web pages. Very puzzling. This is just a guess, but do you have any other applications installed that might be running an IIS Hostable Webcore service?

No not at all , just xampp running apache and mysql

I don’t know what i’m doing wrong i have asked all over the internet but no one knows, i installed xampp locally then installed wordpress so far all is good , then got the static ip , did the ip forwarding with the exact ports of xampp apache and mysql , when i access the page work with no pictures , and the wp-admin page on an error , do you see anything i did wrong here ?

I think I may be closer to understanding what is happening. Could you confirm a couple of things?

1) Look at the root of your C:\ drive on the computer where you have installed WordPress, and see if there really is a folder named “inetpub”. I suspect the answer is going to be no.

2) Where is your WordPress actually installed, is it C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wordpress, or something different?

i can’t access my wp-admin page when accessing it from another computer using my static ip address

3) Do your WordPress addresses in your dashboard still have the word “localhost” in them, and if so, does the computer that you used to access your site when you took the screenshot of the error message have IIS installed on it?

1) no there is no such a folder on my c drive
2) my wordpress is in “D:\Website-SErver\htdocs\wordpress”
3) i don’t understand ,when i access it from the local machine i type localhost in the address bar so it says that , is that what you wanted to know ?
and the other computer yes have IIS installed on it i checked

when i access it from the local machine i type localhost in the address bar so it says that , is that what you wanted to know ?

You see the 404 error page on the other computer (the one running the IIS server) because at least one of your WordPress URLs probably still has “localhost” in it. Every computer uses “localhost”, so when the browser sees that in a URL, it tries to look on the local computer, rather than on your site.

Basically you are right back at the point where @catacaustic was explaining that it would be necessary to change all of the URL’s in your database in order to access your site from other computers.

That includes your WordPress URL’s. If you don’t have a proper domain name, then it would need to be your static numeric IP address instead of the word “localhost”, in order to view the site from other computers.

Some reference materials that might help bring things into focus a little better: Changing The Site URL

I will try that , i really hope it works thank you very much

Is there is a way to install the wordpress site directly on the ip address not the localhost , i look around in that but i got no where

Is there is a way to install the wordpress site directly on the ip address not the localhost ,

Sure.. For a fresh installation, you will need to remove the existing tables from your WordPress database first*

*Caution: This will delete ALL of your content, so be sure it is what you want to do!

Now go to another computer and type in the browser address bar;

https://your.static.ip.address/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php

I think that should do the trick. You just won’t be able to view it properly from the machine it’s installed on after that without some additional efforts.

Again i can’t really thank you enough for your help

No problem. I hope you have good luck this time!
