I have installed the openemr 4.12 with XAMPP 3.2.1 and am able to access it fine on this machine via the localhost link as described in the installation guide.I have tried accessing the installation from another work station at my practice but am unable to do so.My machines are on a wireless network and have tried using the router i.p. address/openemr link with no luck.I have searched the forums with no clarity.Please forgive my ignorance,a response will be greatly appreciated.Thanks.
First try accessing your localhost from another machine within your LAN using your IP address. (eg : http://192.168.1.x/). To obtain your current ipaddress, Open your terminal and type “ipconfig”, it will give your current IP address.
Try accessing it from your browser and you would get the page same as when you type localhost on your machine where OpenEMR is installed.
If you could not get the page, you may need to configure your XAMPP server to accept connection from other machines in the network.
Make sure your conf file (httpd.conf file in the XAMPP installed folder) allows connections from other machines. It should contain the lines
Thanks for your quick reply.This worked very well.I used the IPv4 address from the command prompt window.I accessed the installation from a tablet I have as my other machine was unavailable without incident.Thanks again.
