Hello, I recently just got easyphp which i then made the <directory c:/www
and the directoryroot c:/www
I can currently see the localhost exactly like it should be, however my friends cannot.
Help? Thanks

The "localhost" address is a special address which always refers to the local host - ie: the user's own system. You need to give your friends your correct IP address and enable incoming http connections, if required.

well you gotta give us more than that. are your friends trying http://YOUR_IP_ADDRESS ??? you can get your IP from
http://www.whatismyip.com . Also, if you are behind a router you have to configure the router to send port 80 (which is the default webserver port) to your computer.
Anywho, this does not belong in PHP code

well if you can see it just find and its running on your computer then your situation is probably going to be due to a firewall. Disable all firewalls and see if that works, if it does then configure your firewall accordingly.

Code: Select all
# Error Code 10061: Connection refused
# Background: The server you are attempting to access has refused the connection with the gateway. This usually results from trying to connect to a service that is inactive on the server.

Type your IP into your browser from the computer your running the web server on and see if works for you. If it doesn't then post the error message. If it does, then maybe your IP has changed recently or you haven't configured your firewall corectly. There really isn't enough information here to answer your question.
