Permission (3 replies)

Hello everyone, it's been years!

I'm running Win 10 Pro Version 1909 64 bit, clean install.

I'm running the WAMP 64 bit version. All of the runtime libraries installed without issue and the WAMP icon in the system tray is green.

Apache 2.4.41.

PHP 7.3.12.

MariaDB 8.0.18

I followed the bouncing ball through the WAMP installation, WAMP installed without issue.

I ran the, "check state of services" tool and the tool returned no issues.

I have the DynDNS updater installed and running without issue, Ports 80 and 443 forwarded to the server.

I can connect to the website from the local server maching but not from the web.

Every, everything is running perfectly except that I get :

"You don't have permission to access this resource" when I attempt to connect to the Elgg open source social media website.

I've been working this problem for three days now. I read about modifying one of the PHP ".ini" files but then I also read that this modified file makes the system vulnerable to a web side attack.

So, in regards to accessing this website and the associated permission, what did I miss? What do I have to do in order access this website from the web side?

Something else I've read about, that WAMP is intended as a development tool and not intended to be a production server. I get that now. Is there a WAMP like package intended to run on a windows server?

Thank you all in advance for helping me out with issue.

Best regards...
