[Solved] Templates/CSS shows up only on servers browser

Post by WarMace »

I just set up a virtural server running Win2003 + XAMPP + CMSMS version 1.1.3.1

The CMSMS default page shows up normal when using the browser on the server but when any remote PC views the site all they get is the plain black on white text with no CSS formatting.

Is there any tests I can do to figure out where the Style Sheets are being stopped?

Any help is greatly appreciated!


Thank you,

Mike B.

I think the problem lies with your config.php file.

Edit the line that says: "$config['root_url'] = 'http://localhost';" and replace it with your servers external IP address, or domain name.

That did it THANK YOU!

One last question, is there somewhere in the install steps where I missed a instruction that would have prevented this?

Not sure, there could have been, but I change mine every few minutes to test from an external computer (I have a test server running on my development machine)
