Question

Recently I’ve install Ubuntu 12.10 on my dev machine. also I’ve installed apache 2.2 &
Php 5.3.8 and Php 5.2.17 and MySQL. Everything works fine and I can browses my sites and projects via 127.0.0.1 & Localhost keyword and Hostname But I cannot access my sites or Apache web server via Local ip address (192.168.1.5).

Do you have any idea about this issue please let me to know your XP in this case ?

Answer 1

Perhaps your Apache is bounded to localhost only. Look in your Apache configuration file
(httpd.conf) for

Listen 127.0.0.1:80

and replace it with:

Listen 80

or

Listen *:80

Also check the Firewall settings, look for a the line below in the same file:

Allow from 127.0.0.1

and try changing it to:

Allow from all
