How to do web sharing windows xp to site on macbook?

I've created a website with iweb '08 on a macbook, 10.6.8. I've clicked on "web sharing" in system preferences. My ipad can access the website on the macbook, but my windows xp desktop can't open it but doesn't say "server not found" it opens a page about APACHE. Is the problem on the macbook or on the desktop? And how can the problem be solved? General Information: (a) All computers are in the same wireless home network. (b) The pc has never been able to reach shared documents on the macbook, but the macbook can access shared documents on the pc.

Your post was almost a year ago but whatever. It sounds to me like your pc is going to the library/webserver/documents folder to pick up your site. But your site is most likely in your sites folder under your profile. The addresses are different: 192.168.0.1 or whatever ending digit yours is and 192.168.0.1/~username, respectively. Yeah, there are two different website folders. You'll see the Apache index.html in the docs folder. Hey, at least you know "it works!"; now just replace the index doc and put your resources in there and you're hosting (port forward your router and it's on the internet for sure with your external IP as the address, otherwise it's just local). Also, you must not have file sharing between mac and windows (windows file sharing or smb protocol or something like that) enabled on the macbook; hence, no shared docs folder.

How can one update text windows on remote site with out DW

Hi!
I am new to site design and I don't know if what I have in mind can be achieved.
I would like to have a website with different news (text) and I would like to update those text by just uploading a file with the new text, can this be done.
If yes, how?
Thanks for any clue.
Edgar

Hi!,
Finaly I thought Server Side Include would be the easiest way to achieve my goal.
I took a text and save it as HTML; open it with notepad and erase all HTML tags, leaving just, I think the, the requested tag for tex, heraafter copy of my file:
I am not sure about what was wrong, but using the DW to write the "include" rather than to do it by hand (to understand better what I was doing ) it works well after I erase the following lines :
</STYLE>
< LANG="fr-FR" TEXT="#000000" DIR="LTR">
<H4 CLASS="western">nserting an image placeholder</H4>
<P CLASS="western">An image placeholder is a graphic you use until
final artwork is ready to be added to a web page; it is not a graphic
image that displays in a browser. Before you publish your site,
replace any image placeholders you've added with web-friendly graphic
files such as GIFs or JPEGs. Click the link below to begin the
simulation</P>
<P CLASS="western" STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><BR>
</P>
And that does not work I get :
an error occurred while processing this directive]
Wher is my error
Thank you

How to track web request made to sharepoint site from remote computer

I am trying to connect IBM datastage application to a sharepoint list using soap web services. I am using GetList and Getlistitems to get the data from sharepoint list. While doing this i can sucessfully connect using Getlist function , but getlistitems
its throwing the error.
Now i was wondering if there is a way to track the responce made by the IBM Datastage upon my SharePoint Farm. I checked the trace logs, i cant find any trace there.
Where would i find such information to make sure connection between sharepoint server and IBM datastage has been made sucessfully.
Thank you

Hello, I think you can use the SQL Profiler to check the connectivity to SharePoint
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175848.aspx
Also, here is the long discussion about getlistitems from web services

How can I make my Windows side recognize my external Macbook Air Superdrive

So I updated my Mac to Snow Leopard but I'm having a slight problem. Previously my Windows side did not have problems recognizing the Macbook Air Superdrive but now, each time that I switch to the PC side, the drive stops functioning completely. Is there a way that I can somehow format the drive/make it run on the PC side?
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

im not sure if this is what you mean, but this program here will allow you full access to all Mac partitions:

if you think it might be what you want, download the demo and see if that works.

How can outside users access my iWeb sites shared via Web Sharing

Since the coming demise of mobileme/idisk I have decided to publish all of my websites locally (created with iWeb) and share them by the Web Sharing feature in OS X. Everything works perfectly from any computer or device that is on my home network but once I am outside my network I cannot access any of my website nor can any family members. I have an airport network at home using an airport extreme and numerous computers and devices (ipods, ipad, etc) on the network. All can access from within the network but not from outside. What can I do to fix this?
I don't want to use a commercial service since my sites are large. Tried Dropbox and it was too cumbersome.
Thanks,
Chris

Here is some info on hosting your website yourself:
_WWW FAQs: How do I host a real domain name at home?_
_How do I host my own website at home?_
_Should I host my own web server?_ - This one describes the pitfalls of hosting yourself.
I agree with Roddy. For about $3.95 per month you can get a fuil service host complete with 24/7 ear-to-ear customer support and all the bells and whistles at HostExcellence.com.

How do I connect a Windows 8.1 tablet to a new Macbook Pro?

I am going to be purchasing a new Macbook Pro soon. In addition, I'll probably purchase a new Windows 8.1 tablet to replace my aging iPad 2. How can I connect the Windows tablet to the new Macbook Pro so I can add/remove data & movies?
Thanks to everyone for this help on this; I appreciate it.

Windows 8.1 is designed as a desktop operating system, so it doesn't need to be connected to any PC and you won't be able to connect it to your MacBook Pro because it hasn't got any port to do it.
Instead, what you can do is to install iTunes on the tablet and access to all your content purchased from the iTunes Store by using your Apple ID, or transfer your songs by using Home Sharing > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3819

Web Sharing fix?

I have just discovered that web sharing has been removed from Mountain Lion.
I use it to test iPhone web apps over my local network. I found it was much faster, simpler and more secure to setup than having to test from an on-line server.
I use MAMP for its server features but would like to know how to reinstate web sharing without conflicting with MAMP.
Any help appreciated.
Christo
PS: Apple Inc., please reinstate the web server feature into Mac Os.

Web sharing is still there. It was only the button in system preferences that was removed. See my User Tip to re-enable it: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3083

Web Sharing + Remote mysql Access

Hey! I just had a quick question.
I'm a developer and I was wondering how to enable Web Sharing to allow my PHP code to access mysql databases remotely.
Currently, my web sharing and php and stuff like that work great, but I get the following error whenever I try to connect to a database.
"Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/private/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /Users/matt/Sites/bio/web/dbconnect.php on line 2
Could not connect: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/private/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"
I'm pretty saavy with software, but anything dealing with firmware or hardware, I am very much humbled. Can someone please help with enabling access to connect to a remote mysql database?
Thanks so much.

Nah I haven't actually physically installed it on my computer. I didn't think I had to install it, since I already actually have the database built that I want to connect to.
Should I install it, then?

Problem using Web Sharing

Hi... I am running OSX 10.5.7 on my new Unibody Macbook that is about a week old. (I used migration assistant to transfer everything over, web sharing worked fine on my old macbook).
At first when I tried to connect I got the plain Apache startup page, and followed the advice in the apple article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA25038?viewlocale=en_US
I updated the username.conf file but I'm not sure if I did it right, because now I can't connect to anything at all... I simply get the message:
Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://192.168.1.6/” because it could not connect to the server “192.168.1.6”.
(This is when I click the web sharing link in system preferences. I get the same message for the username.local link and the /~username/ link too)
I tried entering the following command in terminal:
apachectl configtest
as suggested in another post on this forum. I get the following result:
Syntax error on line 1 of /private/etc/apache2/users/Jasmine.conf:
Invalid command '{\\rtf1\\ansi\\ansicpg1252\\cocoartf949\\cocoasubrtf460', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
is there a way to start over from scratch?
Can I get rid of the Syntax error on line 1 and get web sharing working (I'm not building websites, I just need to get some files moved over to my iPod Touch).
I've been searching for awhile but so far no luck. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi, I just wanted to know if you could help me out with a similar problem.
I'm new to both macs and apache, and I have run into a problem while installing mysql and php. I have been using a online video tutorial from lynda.com but I can't seem to access the localhost. I tried the http://localhost/~(username)/ but all it says is that safari can't connect. I checked both web sharing and MySQL server status and they are both turned on. When I ran apachectl configtest in the terminal I get this output:
httpd: Syntax error on line 459 of /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 15 of /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-userdir.conf: Syntax error on line 8 of /private/etc/apache2/users/+entropy-php.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/php5/libphp5.so into server: dlopen(/usr/local/php5/libphp5.so, 10): no suitable image found. Did find:\n\t/usr/local/php5/libphp5.so: no matching architecture in universal wrapper
any help would be great,
thanks

Personal Web sharing not installed HOW - do I install?

Hi - I have had an extremely frustrating 4 hours or so between trying to google a solution to the problem and examining the contents of the installation disk with pacifist - I am still none the wiser.
I have not tried to set up a localhost server on my Intel Mac running 10.4.9 I have had since september and it should be as easy as pie to do so from what I have read.... but not in my case!
I went to apple > system preferences > sharing and tried to check personal web sharing as suggested in many places but get this for my trouble
'Web Sharing is not installed on this computer. To install Web Sharing, use the Mac OS X installer.'
My question is how do I do so without dausing a reformat and still not getting the option?
I have used pacifist to try and locate either PWS or apache installers inon the disc but sinply am at a loss to find either. Hope someone can help
Thanks in advance

NOt that I am aware of - I may have tried to do something like launch the apache index page from httpd or similar in the first couple of days of owning the machine but unless by some sure accident I have not altered any settings.... ( I never got into admin settings or any of that from what I remember)
I'm not even looking for PHP or mySQL now - Just a running WS so that I can test CSS in it.
Even so - I still have absolutely no idea where the pws taller is located on the installation disk that I am referred to so therefore am not willing to unstall it for reasons mentioned. I most certainly do not want a reinstall for the sake of a little but in my case neccessary application
Good point Gnarlodious - like to hear what angle you are coming from on this (particularly if you can help me get this sorted out from the disk as Apple suggest. Much as I love my conversion to apple I have to say the documentation and overall support from the site is appalling (I thought Microsoft was bad......). Instructions such as that encountered on the PWS toggle are vague to say the very least
Thanks for the reply

Web Sharing - how to turn on and off

Here is the Apple article . . .
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5230?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
I had Web Sharing on in Lion when I did the upgrade, so it is on in Mountain Lion after the upgrade. That is good, otherwise I would have thought Apple removed the Apache server.
Does anyone know how to toggle the server on and off now? Since they took the toggle out of sharing preferences. Very odd that they would remove the ability to turn off and on the server.
I know I could go get Mountain Lion Server, but that is a lot of "stuff" just to toggle on and off the web server. My needs are simple, I just want to be able to turn the server on and off like you could before in all earlier versions of OS X.

OK, found this in another thread. But I still do not get why Apple would take away a simple toggle.

Dear sampathdevunuri kumar,
You may develop the addon based on SDK DIServer for required function.
The DI Server is an extension of the DI API and supports all its objects. It is intended for high-volume data integration, where numerous client connections must be managed simultaneously and optimized for speed. It is also suitable where Web-services architecture is preferred.
Please refer to SDK help and SDK DIServer sample for more information.
