I know this kind of thing cannot be adequately answered without a link to the live example. Unfortunately, I can't set one up right now as it's a back-end login and creating a safe public login would be too much to do at this point. Sorry. I'm hoping for ideas and input from people who may have experienced something similar in the past.
I am setting up a CMS for a client with a DSL connection in Spain.
The CMS is hosted on a straightforward standard, LAMP based, shared hosting package in a network center in Germany.
It comes with a .com domain.
When my client tries to log in to the CMS using Internet Explorer 7, everything works fine.
When she tries to log in using Firefox, she gets to the login form, submits it - and then the connection times out.
When she logs in using Firefox but using "domain.com" instead of "www.domain.com", everything works fine.
This happens on all computers that are hooked up to that line. One Windows XP, one Windows Vista.
The front-end part of the site, as well as a second, older CMS, work fine in all browsers.
I do not have access to the raw access logs.
I have not been able to reproduce this behaviour on any other connection.
Debugging ideas are welcome. Remote diagnosis is extremely difficult as the line is too slow to set up a proper remote connection.
If you are limited by how you can troubleshoot this, have the client install Fiddler - Web debugging proxy and then run the trace, and send you the logs, Fiddler will analyze the traffic (be it proxy or DNS timeout, etc)
Take a look if you have not used it before:
http://www.fiddler2.com/Fiddler2/version.asp
Check that Firefox and IE are using the same proxy settings.
DNS issues? can you put here your A records to check is everything is ok?

Good day,
I am making a discord bot that will require MySQL access. I have used XAMPP in the past for other projects, but now that I am working with someone else, I need to allow them to also access my XAMPP MySQL database. I have tried googling solutions, as well as looking up a lot of other stuff for this, but everything just redirects back to localhost/virtualhost stuff.
I have my own DNS that I would like the person to connect to, so example.
I am trying to run this entire thing off my own server, this way I do not have to worry about data limitations or worry about if the project goes inactive for a while that everything will be wiped (remotemysql.com)
Only kind of success I have had so far is allowing another computer on my LAN to connect through my IPv4 address
I have the ports, 3306, 80, and 443 all open as well as allowed through my firewall. I have also tried temp disabling my firewall to test to see if this was the issue, but it wasnt
I don't know if you want to that just for testing, if it is, maybe ngrok could work for you.
It creates tunnels to localhost, but it has no custom domains on the free plan though.
Use ngrok. Alternatively if you want it to be free in terms of use, you can setup your own ngrok like server using expose. Here is the link https://github.com/beyondcode/expose
Since the new iOS update (10.3.2), we can't reach our website from an Apple device. Safari, Chrome or Firefox are returning a blank page or an error page saying there's a network problem.
We've tried from different places, different kind of iphones, on wifi or cell connection (3G,4G)
On mine it was working well, so I updated it to the 10.3.2 version, and I'm having the same error.
I tried contacting my web host but they told me they couldn't do anything. I tried to install Cakephp in a subdirectory, but even with a fresh install and an empty cakephp (2.9.8), it doesn't work.
I tried the same thing with a Cakephp 3 installation, and it works.
I tried installing Cakephp 2.9.8 on another web hosting (a personal one from the same web host) and .. it works.
So I'm getting a little confused as it seems to be an issue with :
iOS 10.3.2
Cakephp 2.9.2 to 2.9.8
my web hosting
Does anybody can give me any direction to look up ? I'm starting to be really depressed here ...
I found a temporary solution by changing my web hosting configuration.
My web host (OVH, French host) allows to use PHP-FPM (which is a PHP FastCGI implementation) to enhance the website performance.
When I disabled it yesterday, my website was available for iOS 10.3.2 users ! I don't know why, but for now I'm relieved.
I've just asked OVH if they have any idea why, but I'm not really optimistic about their reply ...
Is it possible to use the facebook api like we do it on sites live on the internet , but on XAMPP ( a local server) installed on my computer ? I'd really appreciate your feedback.
Mostly the API's should work fine unless you have a registered domain associated with the API app key.
You have not specified which API you are using [Facebook has a lot of API's with various security levels]
A few disadvantages on working on local machines are as follows
A local machine is identified as an anonymous request coming from some IP as its not associated with a domain. Therefore chances of blocking your API request are high.
Your system may have imposed firewall rules for incoming and outgoing requests, if your local server is not configured to send and receive outbound requests your might be in trouble.
Hope this helps.
This is sent from a mobile, don't ask me how but the comment system doesn't work nicely for me.
A local server is the same as a live website, the only difference is that you run it locally...
If you have an internet connection while running the server, you're basicly the same as every other server....
but well if you don't have internet on it don't expect it to be working....
[but ofcourse you can only connect to it locally and not from other computers xD]
I hope I answered your question now, Feel free to add a comment if you want to.
Yours sincerely,
Mike M.
Yes you can. Just make sure that redirect url must be the url which we put in the facebook while building the app.
I need to test my website on multiple browsers (mainly ie8 & ie7), but bare in mind this website uses PHP which is running on a local server (using WAMP stack). The website is not on-line yet.
Furthermore, the website is interactive so simple screenshots will not do.
Can someone please help me find a tool that helps me test my site keeping in mind of the 2 things mentioned above. Thanks!
The best method is to put it online and use BrowserStack. It's an online service that creates a virtual machine, forwarded to your computer by Flash. The website will be slow, but still interactive. It's free for 30 minutes, or free for 3 months if you make an account via this Microsoft website. It's then quite cheap for that kind of service.
If you really want to test on your local server, you can use Internet Explorer 9, tap the F12 button to bring the developper tools, and then select a browser mode, like IE 7.
If you're using WAMP you can simply launch the desired browser and then go to
localhost/your_website_folder
Of course you must know where your localhost refers to. In WAMP it should be
C:\wamp\www
by default. So to access your website, you need to put it in C:\wamp\www\your_website_folder.
http://www.browserstack.com/
This is a web based virtual machine that tests pretty much every browser.
It can also set up a tunnel to test on your local host.
You get a short amount of time for free - just make sure you log out when you finish testing to stop it eating into your free trial period further
Sorry, i had to put the same post again due to still no solution
I have a strange problem, i just installed my php web site on a shared hosting(php,apache,mysql,linux), all services were working fine. But after configuring my app i just could visit my web site only once, other attempts gives "The server is taking too long to respond.". But from other IP i can access, but only once, it seems all ip addresses being blocked after first visit(even ftp and other services go down, no access at all from the IP), can anyone help to explore this problem ? i don't think that it's my app problem, the app works fine on my local PC. By far The only one is there might be a infinity loop in my code becouse i had this issues on my local pc, but i fixed it, should work fine everywhere. Can infinity loop make blocking all services bind(if this is the way) to particular IP ? but im not sure about this. Never thought this way.
I would look at an infinite loop issue more. I had a similar issue that only showed up on the shared server because my local machine had a different version of php and different error settings.
Sounds like a problem either with sessions or database connections. Is there a page's code that you could share that causes this problem?
