Author Question on ports
Ryan Garnier

2005-10-31, 7:56 am

Maybe this is not the correct newsgroup for this question, but I didn't
find another suitable one:

I have apache webserver, and In a webpage I have to make a link to
another port in my PC (not the one configured to the webserver). I don't
know how to create it:

For instance:

http://localhost:8888/.../file

<a href="localhost:8888/.../file"></a> doesn't work

Thanks in advance

The default web port is usually 80 so you likely have to change your Apache
configuration to use a different one, and check that the new port number is open
in other areas, such as potential firewall settings.
