PROBLEM Xampp redirect issue

[vpatel]

Hi guys, I have got a getSimple site, which was on an old 2.X version. I have made a copy of it from my server and migrated it down to a local instance of xampp on my laptop. I have also upgraded the site successfully to the latest version.

Now, when I go over to the site, the homepage loads successully, but when I click any of the links in the menu or press '#' in admin -> pages to view a page, it redirects me to http://127.0.0.1/dashboard/ instead of the actual page.

How can I fix this?

What is dashboard ?

Did you change your siteurl in settings ?
Do you have fancy urls enabled ?

I am going to guess your htaccess rewrites are not setup to the right root, or you have something else in your xamp install redirecting.
