I know this question doesn't belong here. But I don't have anywhere else to go, i prefer codeproject.
i tried googling but i don't think i can successfully generate a proper google string like:
apache windows7 "no network" "loopback works"
etc
Anyway, here's the setup:
Windows 7, NOD32, no firewall, Apache 2.2
bunch of VHOSTS, edited hosts file.
Apache conf:
Listen 172.16.214.237:80
Listen 80
NameVirtualHost *:80
NameVirtualHost 172.16.214.237:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me@localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs"
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias 127.0.0.1 user-pc 172.16.214.237
...
<VirtualHost 172.16.214.237:80>
ServerAdmin me@localhost
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs"
ServerName 172.16.214.237
ServerAlias user-pc 172.16.214.237
...
added the 172.16.214.237 things later because it wasn't working, but didn't change anything still isn't working

running a Virtual Machine on Oracle VM WinXP, with an IP: 172.16.214.216 and cannot load anything on it on address http://172.16.214.237/ same on every other PCs on the network, there is no firewall on .237. http://localhost/ or http://127.0.0.1/ or http://172.16.214.237/ works from .237
I've been messing around with Apache for 4 to 5 years just basic stuff nothing serious, help is greatly needed. I don't know why i can't access apache on .237 from any other machine, seems like everything is fine. there is ping, no firewall
