Hi,

I've been playing with Ubuntu on my other PC and decided to install XAMPP on it.

The only problem is the thing keeps on redirecting me to http://localhost/xampp/

I have checked in httpd.conf but can't fins anything in there that tells it to go to /xampp/.

Any ideas please?

Thanks,
Craig.
 
open the htdocs folder and remove index.php, as it contains:

<?php
if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && ('on' == $_SERVER['HTTPS'])) {
$uri = 'https://';
} else {
$uri = 'http://';
}
$uri .= $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
header('Location: '.$uri.'/xampp/');
exit;
?>
Something is wrong with the XAMPP installation :-(

/opt/lampp/htdocs/index.php not there :(

There was an index.html or some kind of index, but I deleted it as soon as I noticed I was being redirected.

EDIT

If I access http://localhost/ from the server PC it's fine, it doesn't redirect me.

But if I access http://192.168.1.38/ from another PC is redirects me :(

Ah, I thought it would be the same as on Windows :(.

What about a .htaccess file?
 
In that case, just do what I do. Create a files folder in htdocs and put all your stuff in there. Instant fix :p

As in change the webserver root dir from /opt/lampp/htdocs to /opt/lampp/htdocs/files ??

EDIT

I'd really like to figure out what's making it redirect like this. If I access the webserver using http://127.0.0.1 or http://192.168.1.38 or http://computername on Ubuntu then it doesn't redirect me, it just shows me the directory listing.

But, if I access the server from another computer it redirects me to /xampp for some reason.

EDIT

Could it be something to do with one of the other conf files? The ones in /opt/lampp/etc/extra?

Thanks,
Craig.
