SunDish214 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Hello, I have been using Apache for quite some time now, everything ran fine and worked in order until just recently. All of a sudden I cannot connect to my server! Type http://70.64.197.188/ into your brower and nothing will work. There used to be a comment block on it, but nothing shows up. If I type 'localhost' into my browser, it will show up intact. I haven't been messing around with anything, this just happened out of the blue. I've reinstalled everything, restarted everything, but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas?

Everything's supposed to work fine except some different issues: 1. Check your IP address! 2. If you're running on Windows and just installed Service Pack 2, you may need to unblock port 80 ( or whatever port Apache is running under) 3. Try to remember when you first set up Apache. rename your httpd.conf file to something else and use the httpd-default.conf to see if the problem is from the current one.

SunDish214 Posted October 16, 2005 Author Share Posted October 16, 2005 Okay well, my IP address changed to 70.64.197.121 and now my site works. I have one question though: Why did it change? I have high-speed internet with Shaw Cable. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/2671-cannot-connect-to-my-server/#findComment-8885 Share on other sites More sharing options...
effigy Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 ips can change unless you buy a static ip from your isp. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/2671-cannot-connect-to-my-server/#findComment-8907 Share on other sites More sharing options...
