I can't externally access my home server's wordpress website
- by piratepartypumpkin
Basically, I can access everything just fine using 127.0.0.1, but if I use my external IP (123.123.123.123), I get page not found.
My router is port forwarding HTTP port 80 to port 8080 on my servers internal IP address. In other words: (Application: HTTP | Start: 80 | End: 8080 | Protocol: Both | IP Address 192.168.0.101 | Enable [YES]) I know it's forwarding properly, because when I stop port forwarding, I can access my router page by using my external IP.
My virtual hosts file is:
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /opt/lampstack-5.3.16-0/apps/wordpress
ServerName example.com
ServerAlias www.example.com
</VirtualHost>
and my httpd.conf file is:
Listen 80
Servername localhost:80
DocumentRoot "/opt/lampstack-5.3.16-0/apache2/htdocs
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny, allow
deny from all
