How do I setup XAMPP server with my registered domain?


When I buy a domain (ex. website.com) and setup my XAMPP or WAMP server, what should I do to show files from my XAMPP / WAMP server when someone types my domin name to te browser? I know that I should type something to httpacess file (found it here on stackoverflow), but is it that easy? What if someone else set up my domain with his server before I do? Thanks! I mean, what is the process from buying domain and starting Xampp or Wamp to make my webfiles show when the domain is typed in browser url box?


Solution

  • You need to know the fixed ip address for this.

    If you know the fixed ip address, you need to create a nameserver for the domain and direct these nameservers to the ip address.

    Then you should direct the domain to these nameservers. Domainin will be directed.
