Hi All, Today, I installed LiveCode server in a XAMPP directory in Windows, following the clear instructions provided by Simon in this webpage: http://activethought.net/setting-liveco ... ver-xampp/ and the helpful reference of this LiveCode Guide: http://livecode.com/developers/guides/server/
After undoing many of my own mistakes, like: 1- Forgetting to make a backup of a configuration file before editing... :roll: 2- Avoiding copy and paste from a webpage into a configuration file, because html format does not preserve exactly the code... :oops: 3- Check many times all provided instructions to make sure that Directory modified is the correct one... :? After fixing all my mistakes, still I found an error 403 when I tried to run my first hello.lc code from the browser. Checking Apache Error log, I found this: AH01797: client denied by server configuration According to Apache documentation, my LiveCode folder inside xampp was denied permission to execute... :( After checking all configuration files used by Apache, I found this inside the file httpd-xampp.conf: <LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))"> Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 \ fc00::/7 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16 \ fe80::/10 169.254.0.0/16 ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var </LocationMatch> and just decided to add the livecode folder to the list: <LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|livecode|server-status|server-info))"> Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 \ fc00::/7 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16 \ fe80::/10 169.254.0.0/16 ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var </LocationMatch> Now, all my livecode files execute correctly in the web browser, but I want to know if this modification opens a security risk in a Livecode server. Thanks in advance!
