I can get to mythweb on the machine running mythtv with localhost/mythweb, but when I try to access mythweb remotely (from another machine on my network) all I get is a blank page. I have tried changing ports, but no difference. I can access the apache test page remotely.

I have tried to follow the wikis, but to not avail. The wikis indicate that the allow options should be in httpd.conf, but maybe I need to be doing somthing in the default vhost conf?

Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.

Please post what you have done to enable mythweb within httpd.conf.

Here it is:
Code:
# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
# features.
#
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>

# Add permission for mythweb to set redirects:
<Directory /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mythweb>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>


I found this in the forums, it got the localhost/mythweb working. But not from another computer.

Here is what mine looks like:
Code:
<Directory /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mythweb>
        Order Deny,Allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from 192.168.1.0/16
        AllowOverride All
        Options FollowSymLinks
</Directory>


The first three lines inside it only allow access from behind my router. If you wanted to let everyone access it (dangerous, if you don't have password access enabled), you try it with "Allow from all".

Thanks for the reply, but no luck, I tried the following:
Code:
<Directory /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mythweb>
        Order Deny,Allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from All
        AllowOverride All
        Options FollowSymLinks
</Directory>


I still cannot access mythweb from anywhere other than localhost.

Any other suggestions will be appreciated.

Read the apache configuration, you need to enable to allow apache to serve to the outside.

I can get to the apache test page from another computer on my home nework so I'm assuming apache is set up correctly. But all I get on MythWeb is a blank page, no errors messages, nothing.
