scott100 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Just incase anyone else is confronted with this problem.I had lost my apache/php connection so unistalled both and started again by installing apache. After installation apache started up as normal and i typed in http://127.0.0.1/ and http://localhost/ as you do but kept getting page error blah blah.So after hours of wasted time and wild goose chases i figured out that when i disabled Norton Internet Security and refreshed the page, tada, the apache homepage appeared, when i enabled Norton it disappeared again.So to fix this you have to go into:Norton Internet Security -> Status and Security -> Personal Firewall -> Configure -> Programs Tab -> Scroll down to Apache HTTP Server -> Permit All Internet AccessEverything now works fine Hope this helps someone somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Err Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Yup, I've had problem similar to that also. Norton blocks and asks if you want to give permission to a program that accesses the internet. This is also very annoying when installing new programs that try to access the internet... I figured it's best just to disable it for 30min, which is just enough time to finish what I was doing without Norton interferring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boen_robot Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 NIS? Really? I had this problem with NAV but NIS has always been a charm, or at least before Symantec realized what I was actually holding. Oh well... if you had told me this problem, the solution you now offered would have been the first I would suggest scince the experiences with NAV .

scott100 Posted June 19, 2006 Author Share Posted June 19, 2006 Norton blocks and asks if you want to give permission to a program that accesses the internet.Yeah it normally does, but didn't in this case, that's why i checked it later down the list of possible problems.I figured it's best just to disable it for 30min, which is just enough time to finish what I was doing without Norton interferring.I think mine was "disable for 5mins" so there was no way i was putting up with that plus if you need to get something from the web your a fish outta water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tissot Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I don't use Anti-Virus or Security programs anymore. I only have webroot spyweeper, which is good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcole.ath.cx Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Norton is evil... Every time I hear about it from a real person it's bad (by real person, I mean I can see there face... I know there name)yep, I think boen_robot is a robot script that search this forum and makes answers and comments based on word groupings. It has even been programmed to spell incorrect and even understand bad english. jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what platform I run on? World XP ? And I'm probably installed on E:(arth)\Europe\Bulgaria\Plovdiv\*hidden*, right ? And who are my developers? Mother and Father... it took my dad few minutes (god knows how much exactly) and 9 months of development by my mom, not to mention 16 years of upgrades of the final first version, to produce the bot you see before you .Seriously, Norton Internet Security 2006 is a great program, but I too have seen many haters of the old versions, natively hating the new one, so I could see your point.By the way, XSLT is not exactly scripting, but nevermind. It was vchris who first bragged. I just joined him .Oh and... is my english really that bad ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from that it's been good for me, only cost £26 so been good value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
