Hello,
So I have setup a server using XAMPP and I have forwarded my domain to the WAN IP address of the server.
I have typed example - mywebsite.com and it takes me to the IIS (Internet Information Services page on the webserver) I am guessing on port 80.
I had to edit the conf file to get the XAMPP server to start because there where conflicing ports it and XAMPP couldnβt run on port 80 because I guess windows by default
uses this port for http:. I had to use port :8080 to get XAMPP to start.
Once started and I have mywebsite.com forwarded to my wan and port forwarded on the router to 8080, the only way I can see my website from a browser is by typing this.
mywebsite.com:8080
What can I do to get this working correctly, so that when people type mywebsite.com it takes me to the website?
