Access to requested directory is only available from local

[guest]

I have ubuntu installed on my server and XAMPP 1.7. Everything works for localhost address I can access XAMPP but from exernal address(81.196.40.100/xampp) i'll get the folowing error message:

New XAMPP security concept:

Access to the requested directory is only available from the local network.

This setting can be configured in the file "httpd-xampp.conf".

here are the contents of httpd-xampp.conf:

# New XAMPP security concept

Try changing the <LocationMatch> section to

<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
Order deny,allow
#Deny from all
Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 \
fc00::/7 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16 \
fe80::/10 169.254.0.0/16

ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

. It worked for me ..

Add your server IP address (may be your modem address from your ISP) to the section on "new security concept". I don't yet know what this syntax is, but this works for me. It seems more appropriate than allowing ALL.

Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 \
::1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/8 \
fc00::/7 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16 \

You may need to restart the Apache service after the change.
