trouble accessing site on LAN
#1
I am using GS v3.2.3 and very pleased with it.

My setup is XAMPP on Win 7 and I have no problems accessing my site on localhost, however, when I try to view the same site from another device on the LAN, I cannot access images, links or CSS. I just get text and broken links.

I am using http//:192.168.x.x/mysite to access from the LAN.

I searched the web thinking it mat be an XAMPP problem (and it might be) and some suggestion was made to relative links and localhost and that I should define HTTP_SERVER in a config file!

In \etc\hosts, I added
192.168.x.x mysite

but not sure where to define HTTP_SERVER (if, indeed, I need to).

Does anyone have an XAMPP/W7 setup that works on their LAN, and if so could they please offer some direction.

thank you.
I'm no Einstein, nor do I profess to be. Just saying what I would try in the circumstances.
