Apache not connecting to the net ???

I have been told that I have some 'ip filtering' that is causing the problem.

My suspision is that it is my D-Link DI624+ router.

As I have just installed a new computer right from bare bones, brand new, and I have the same problem. As both computers go thru the same router.

I've checked on the router set up for 'virtual servers' and i still have it setup as 'Apache server - 192.168.0.101 - TCP - 80/80 - Always'

Is this now correct, if not waht should it be.

Try entering your IP in the "what's that site running?" box:
http://uptime.netcraft.com/

If it can't connect then try running on port 8080.
My router uses port 80 for other stuff and it seems impossible to bypass it.

Could not get any results for 62.255.32.12 via http://uptime.netcraft.com/

Tried changing Apache ports on the router to 8080, but it tells me that i have a Port range conflit with "Remote Managment http Server"

Ooh, a server dude.

Firstly, back to basics. Is Apache running successfully on the internal network? Can you reach it on port 80 from another machine, in other words?

When you say its a 'Server', its a standalone Apache server that is connected to a router. That router is also connected to 2 other computers and an xbox. I am running XP Pro.

In using http://localhost in my web browser everything is fine, Apache default screen comes up, the php info screen comes up etc etc.

I can run the web browser on the internet no problem.

In running Apache debug.bat it gives me an error message "Disables use of AcceptEx() Winsock API"

Any ideas ??

As well as the "Disabled use of AcceptEx() Winsock API"

I am now getting an additional debug.bat error message

"(os 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted.
: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs"

Any ideas ???.

Check your Apache .conf file.

That IP address is one of the ntl: Birmingham proxy servers. Try looking up your IP here and trying again...
