Okay, I installed XAMPP and am now using this manual: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installing_MediaWiki_on_XAMPP

I didn't mention that I want to run my server "offline" on my local computer only. As detailed in the other manual, I did the following: Change Listen 80 to Listen 127.0.0.1:80 in httpd.conf, Add bind-address=127.0.0.1 under [mysqld] in my.ini.

Is this correct? I don't want to be running internet servers without my knowledge, and the Windows Firewall is coming up with a permission window...

You see, I want to set up my own private Wiki on my local computer that I some day want to transfer onto a real server / webpage.
