I have been building my first Zencart site on my local computer with local host access. I decided to move install onto the Windows Server running Server 2012 Essentials. So others could assist with the data input and so I also could connect and work from home.
At first I could not access Zencart using http://localhost/<zencart folder>/<admin folder> until I noticed that port 80 is not not where XAMPP was running. I have to enter http://localhost:553/<zencart folder>/<admin folder>. When I do I can access zencart locally on the server both front and back ends.
Zen cart shows the local IP as 127.0.0.1 and IPCONFIG says IPv4 Address is 192.168.1.116. No address combination I have tried in the webbrowser will connect a local machine to Zencart across the network.
I have shared htdocs folder and even mapped it as a drive and tired to connect using XAMPP on local machine. I removedfile security from connfigure.php files.
Do I need to get someone in here to reconfigure the server so that port 80 is available for Apache?
Any and all suggestion are welcome.
