Hi, i am using Xampp and i placed 2 folders on the 'htdocs' folder, on folder '1' i have installed the PHPBB Forum which is way better than the Orca Forum and it works nicely with Dolphin, while on folder '2' i have the Dolphin site, which works very well on the local area network, but every times i try to access to it from an external pc, it just never load the page, sometime it even show that i don't have the correct privileges to access it, so why i can access the folder 1, even see the htdocs directory where the folder 2 is showing but i can't get access to it??
Thank youuuu

turn off your firewall and any error you receive when trying to access those folder? so much to do.... |
I moved all the Dolphin subfolder (folder 2) to the "htdocs" folder and now i can see the Dolphin site coming up on the main IP address but still only on the LAN, this is a screenshot of the error i get when i try from my phone, please note that the PHPBB3 forum in the subfolder "1" doesn't have any issues.... |
I did even swap the files between folder 1 and folder 2, to see if i could finally get access to Dolphin from the web, but it did not resolve the problem....
There is any security setting pre-loaded on Dolphin which prevent access from the web????
Thanks

When you installed, you were installing on the LAN? If so your header.inc.php in your /inc folder, would have been written with your IP address,
$site['url'] = "http://192.168.1.105/";
you now should change that to your site domain name..
$site['url'] = "http://www.mysite.com/";

Yes that's solved the problem !!! Thank you so much Newton27, i would never have got past this without your help!
However i now have another problem, if i swap the IP Address i no longer can use the 192.168.... which would be nice to have, there is no way to have both address working at the same time?
Thank you again

Your welcome.
No, you cannot do both.

Right, i am asking because the developers of the forum PHPBB3 managed to make their program to work on both the internal/external address at the same time (192.168.1.50 and www.myhost.com).
With Dolphin seems to be only one way or the other, but it's still great that both options are available, even if we are oblige to choose one or the other :)
