New XAMPP security concept Problem in Ubuntu


When you upgrade your XAMPP to 1.8.0 or install XAMPP it you can get this type of error message.
"
Access forbidden!
New XAMPP security concept:
Access to the requested object is only available from the local network.
This setting can be configured in the file "httpd-xampp.conf".
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 403localhost
Apache/2.4.2 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.1c PHP/5.4.4
"


I also attach screenshot of it.



Now to remove this error open your "httpd-xampp.conf" as stated above in error by typing following command in terminal [Ctrl + Alt + t].


   sudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf


Now make the two changes in that file as given in the following screenshots.


Original File :









After Changes :






Now restart your XAMPP by executing following command in terminal


   sudo /opt/lampp/lampp restart


Now your phpmyadmin is working properly.

    Like many others I cannot thank you enough for your clear example to make it possible to access phpmyadmin from my LAN. After countless hours, yours is the only one that actually works. Thanks again.

      please verify again the above changes and restart the xampp, and also check the permission of the folders in which you place your php files in the htdocs, make it 755 or 777
