WampServer

Hi,
I am currently using WAMP server V 3.0.4 to receive HTTP requests from a cloud service on the internet. However, these requests are not reaching my WAMP server hosted on my laptop, given that I did the modifications required in the vhosts.conf file and given that I applied port forwarding on port 80. Moreover, I did test it locally it worked. So my problem is that WAMP server is still unreachable from the internet.
If anyone has any suggestion, please post it here as soon as you can, thank you.

Hi Peter

Interesting.

However I dont see this as a WAMPServer issue.

For us to help in any way we would need a lot more information about exactly what is going on in your particular situation.

Hi RiggsFolly,

So basically this cloud service provides an http callback method that is responsible of sending the data to my server(WAMP). The following is the callback method implemented: [PRIVATE] IP Address?id={device}&time={time}&data={data}. I am running a php script on my server that is responsible of extracting the data. However, when I simulate the cloud callback method service, I still receive a connection time out mark which indicates that the message could not reach its destination (WAMP server). Problem is, WAMP is unreachable from the cloud. Thank you in advance for your help.

Can we see the Virtual Host definitions please

The following is the vhosts definition file located in C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.18\conf\extra


#
# Virtual Hosts
#

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/">
Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>




Thank you!

Hi,

This is only for localhost. You need to have also a VirtualHost for the local site that use your script.

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/">
Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mysite
DocumentRoot c:/wamp/www/mysqite
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/mysite/">
Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

And in the hosts file

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 mysiqte
::1 mysite

The request from the cloud must address wamp_ip/mysite/

> when I simulate the cloud callback method service
It is not possible to call WAN_ip of the PC where the server is from this same PC.

Hi Otomatic,

I did the modifications in the vhosts file, however, I couldn't find any file that contains the following(even in the httpd.conf file):
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 loclahost

>The request from the cloud must address wamp_ip/mysite/

I did not understand how is this possible? Since wamp_ip is a local ip, whereas the WAN_ip is the ip given by my isp, to which I applied port forwarding on my router for it to forward directly to my pc local ip address (WAMP server ip address). PS: The cloud service is not reachable locally, it is located on the internet.

Thank you in advance!

Typo : localhost, not loclahost. It is the file : C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

> Since wamp_ip is a local ip
Sorry, it is a typo : WAN_ip, not wamp_ip
