cannot login from another PC
« on: December 02, 2009, 01:28:19 pm »
I just installed opengoo and after some problems with the installation I can now login from within the computer on which it is installed. however, I cannot login from other computers.  I can see the login screen, but after entering my username and password I get a screen that says:

Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.


On the computer where I can login I use the address:

http://localhost/opengoo  (localhost has the 148.173.12.123 ip)

on the other pc I use the adress of the host:

http://148.173.12.123/opengoo/index.php?c=access&a=login
and I get to the login screen

The installation folder (opengoo) is inside the htdocs of the xammp installation.
I have a website in another folder inside htdocs and works fine. I can see the site from other PCs


please help
what am I doing wrong?

Thank you

Even I have the same issue. I even tried to update the httpd.conf file but of no positive results.

Application works excellently with in localhost but unless I share this with my team, I cannot proceed with internal production installation.

Please help.

Alright ! I think I fixed it.

Go to config.php file under opengoo\config folder located in your XAMP htdocs.

Now update the define ('ROOT_URL', 'http://..................

to read your IP address of your machine.

For my setting it was
define('ROOT_URL', 'http://localhost/opengoo');

and I changed it to

define('ROOT_URL', 'http://192.168.1.139/opengoo');

Ohla ... I have this beautiful system running now...

Thank you ...
