Hi,

I have a wiki set up on a server running Xampp 3.2.1. My mediawiki version is 1.20.4 running PHP 5.4.16 and MySQL 5.5.32. Unfortunately I can't post a link because I'm hosting it on the LAN network. On the server PC I can access the wiki through localhost, but when I try and access from another PC via the IP address (999.999.999.99/wiki) I get an error from internet explorer (Internet explorer cannot display the webpage) which is weird, because if I try another file in the wiki's directory (999.999.999.99/wiki/api.php for example) it can open it. When I go straight to the index.php (999.999.999.99/wiki/index.php) I get the error again.

Apologies if I have posted in the wrong place, and I would appreciate any advice that anyone could give me.

Hi!

You are only speaking of Internet Explorer? Do you also get this error, when you use a browser ... ehm, meaning e.g. something like Firefox or Chrome?

With Chrome I also get an error: "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to localhost. My URL changes to localhost/wiki

I think that one of the basic variables in LocalSettings.php is set incorrectly. $wgServer would be one of the candidates.

That worked! Thanks so much!

Fine!

Can anyone tell hoe to solve this issue I am facing same issue?

It will be great if someone tell
