So are you saying that it might be something else?
If you open a browser and type in the address by itself you get the yellow xampp config page.
www.192.168.0.1 <--- yellow xampp config page
If you manually type in the same ip address and add a /phpbb on it you then get the right location.
www.192.168.01/phpbb <----now showing the right page

" AFAIK the XAMPP config page is called from within the XAMPP startup process "
That's where the big debate is now! (grin) Is the issue due to a config line in Xampp and if so what line, or it's it something in the Apache config (which I'm guessing is - httpd-conf)

Hi Dormilich,
Oh yea, of course I could rent a site and it would just work but I'm not trying to really build a site ......
Yep, I used Xampp and that Bitnami program to do the intial install of phpbb. I'm just trying to teach myself how to use phpbb and Apache as an exersise. It's alive in a test enviroment right now and it's behaving on the front end.
Now I just want the server to default to the phpbb page...Leave a comment:

main landing page in apache with xampp
Hi,
When I open my site in a browser and I point the URL to the servers address - it opens and it's fine so the server is working OK (good) but it's opening the main landing page to the default Xampp config page.
www.website.ca/xampp
My problem is I need the site to default to the phpBB board I have installed in the xampp program.
So I need the site to open at: www.website.ca/phpbb/...
