gevans Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Hey guys, I'm running xampp on my laptop, and my IP shows up as ::1 rather than 127.0.0.1 This is a slight pain when trying to use the localhost IP address to change between db and config settings locally and in a live environment. Has anyone got any ideas/info as to why this happens?? ::1 is not the easiest thing to search for in Google!!

Mchl Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 It's IPv6 equivalent of 127.0.0.1. Check your hosts file. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/198999-locahost-ip-address-1/#findComment-1044542 Share on other sites More sharing options...
