In OS X Mavericks (and newer), start a PHP server from the command line:
cd to/your/directory
php -S localhost:8888
It works, but the server only available on that computer only. Is there a way to test it on other devices within the same LAN?
EDIT:
You will want to launch the server with the command
php -S 0.0.0.0:8888
This will allow you to access the server remotely (see docs http://php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.webserver.php)
After this is done there are 2 ways to view the site on your local network
http://192.168.1.2:8888 where 192.168.1.2 is the IP address of your computer which you can find in your System Preferences under Network.
http://myMac.local:8888 where myMac is your local computer name which you can find in your System Preferences under Sharing.
REMEMBER: Both of these options may require your firewall to allow incoming traffic to port 8888 (or whatever port your script is listening on), if you have that running.
Start with:
php -S 0.0.0.0:8888
otherwise you bind the server to localhost;

Usually I use the method of this post to connect my mobile devices to my local dev server but I changed flats and it doesn't seem to work anymore. I seem to be doing everything right:
run server:
php artisan serve --host 0.0.0.0
check server ip (mac):
ipconfig getifaddr en0
browse ip + port on mobile device:
https://192.168.179.125:8000
Iphone shows:
This site can't be reached
Am I missing permissions or something?
I have a typo3 folder in /var/www/my_folder, I want to run php server inside my_folder,
I run php -S localhost:8080 but I have problems later with URLs, I want get rid of :8000.
when I try php -S localhost I get
Invalid address: localhost
How can I manage this ?
You can run the PHP web server on on port 80, which is the default for HTTP, like this:
php -S localhost:80
Then you can visit http://localhost in your web browser.
However, it's common practice to use a different port for local development so that you don't have any conflicts between your dev environment and anything else which may be running on your machine. If you're sure you're not using port 80 anywhere else, feel free to use it.
What you can't do is omit the port number like you have in your second example.
Without explicite port usage, browsers use port 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS. So if you want your URLs you use 'later' to not include the port, start the PHP interpreter with the one you need the URLs for.
I'm trying to create a live web server on my Windows 8.1 computer.
I am connected directly to my modem using ethernet (I do have a wireless router) but I am not connected to it on this computer (desktop).
I have XAMPP working and my website appears at http://localhost/home
However, if I put in my IP from www.whatismyip.com it does not load my web server.
What am I missing?
You need to create a Port Forwarding for Port 80 to your Computers local IP Address. There should be a Admin Panel for your Router (normally the Gateway - check out with Start - Run - cmd -> then insert "ipconfig" and check out the Gateway.
And i guess in XAMPP the Internet Access is blocked. But this is a simple Apache Server, so you need to open your httpd.conf File (Should be: “c:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf)
Search here for:
There should be a "Deny from all" - add a # in Front to deactivate that rule.
Restart your Xampp and it should work.
Here you find more Information about Port-Forwarding:
https://managewp.com/how-to-access-a-local-website-from-internet-with-port-forwarding
Any maybe you will also need to activate Port 80 on your Firewall (depends on your Configuration)
You need a method of telling request sent to your public ip to be forwarded to the private ip of the web server. Try logging into you device (router etc) and setting this up.
I did build orientDB and appserver on docker. They are running as well. This is list containers on docker:
core#localhost ~ $ docker ps

Also i did create database on orientDB. I think orient is working fine. However when i login to my website. I got errors "Connection refused" like this:
Socket error #111: Connection refused
• vendors/OrientDB/OrientDB.php:254
OrientDBSocket->__construct('localhost','2424',30)
• apps/models/DB.php:11 OrientDB->__construct('localhost','2424')
I dont know what reason althought i did test fine on local when i enabled server.bat file. Ah, i using orientdb-1.7
Thank for advance !
localhost is a synonim for ip address 127.0.0.1
your binds are for 0.0.0.0
I am not familiar with OrientDB, but I believe that what you are facing is ports access problem (server configuration), not software problem (in this case software is OrientDB). Most servers are configured to block all ports, unless specifically allowed - for security reasons, so that noone can connect to the server on those blocked ports.
So, what is probably happening is that your local server is fine with using those ports, and remote server is secured and thus prevents connections.
Docker is running a virtual machine with separate network interface for each containers. Thus if your appserver connects to localhost, it won't see the orientdb.
You need to update your configuration to lookup the proper environment variable for the link (see http://docs.docker.com/userguide/dockerlinks/) or just use the db host. Docker injects a hostname into /etc/hosts for each linked container.
I've found cause of this issue, because im config HOST to connect is wrong. It's not localhost because docker uses its own internal IP's. In ssh type docker inspect orient then use global variables for config to access to IP & Port.
I'm developing website for my school. In that school we authenticate users via LDAP, so there was an idea to do the same via school-site. On that site everything is working perfectly, but during developing I need very often to test if such solution works, of not. In order not to commit my changes so often I want to test this site on my local computer, but for connecting with LDAP i want to use ssh tunnel. In school network we have one server through witch we are connecting with inside of our school network. It's address is phoenix.lo5.bielsko.pl. Inside this network we have LDAP server with opened 389 and 636 ports. It's address is auth.lo5. I don't have access to auth.lo5 via SSH, I can only connect with it to get some LDAP entries. So, I've tried to run SSH tunnel by running:
ssh -L 636:auth.lo5:636 hfaua#phoenix.lo5.bielsko.pl
Then, I've set in my /etc/hosts that auth.lo5 is pointing to 127.0.0.1. I'm connecting to LDAP in PHP in such a way:
ldap_connect('ldaps://auth.lo5', 636);
But I'm getting error Can't contact LDAP server. I think, that problem might be on phoenix.lo5.bielsko.pl in its SSH daemon config or in arguments passed to ldap_connect() function. Can you tell me, what should I set in sshd_config or in arguments passed to ldap_connect to get it working?
I posted the same question in similar thread, but no one has answered my question.
P.S. In my /etc/ssh/sshd_config I have line AllowTcpForwarding yes
If I got it right phoenix.lo5 and auth.lo5 are 2 different machines.
If so you have to create a tunnel to the ssh machine, and then send the ldap queries to the right machine.
Your command: ssh -L 636:auth.lo5:636 hfaua#phoenix.lo5.bielsko.pl is right if phoenix.lo5.bielsko.pl can resolve auth.lo5 via DNS or /etc/hosts, if not you need to use its internal ip address.
Also if you want to use port 636 on your pc, you need to run your command as superuser (root or with sudo) else you need to use an high port (above 1024) as stated by Borealid
Once the tunnel is up you have to point to localhost to do the queries
I ran into this same issue. Running with -d1 showed me this error:
TLS: hostname (mylaptop.local) does not match common name in certificate (*.mydomain.com).
TLS reverse lookup of 'localhost' is 'mylaptop.local', checking if that matches the certificate common name
Could be you're hitting a similar problem.
I was able to fake it out by running:
sudo hostname someserver.mydomain.com
which caused SSL to assume it was talking to the right host.
I was also getting the error hostname (mylaptop.local) does not match common name in certificate (*.mydomain.com). However I did not want to edit the hostname of my machine to match that of the LDAP server. Instead I edited the hosts file (etc/hosts on linux) file to add a line that would intercept requests to the LDAP server eg:
127.0.0.1 ldap.server.com
This has the added benefit of not requiring you to change which server name you are trying to connect to in your code, you only need to change the port number if you chose a different port.
Try replacing all instances of auth.lo5 with localhost:
ssh -L 636:localhost:636 hfaua#phoenix.lo5.bielsko.pl
and
ldap_connect('ldaps://localhost', 636);
If that doesn't work, try turning off SSL to see if that works:
ssh -L 389:localhost:389 hfaua#phoenix.lo5.bielsko.pl
and
ldap_connect('localhost', 389);
