Hi all,

I have recently installed wordpress using the web developer server suite for windows. Media-wiki is working well but wordpress is havig issues. When I use the URL http://locahost/wordpress on the server I can get access to the site. If I use http://servername/wordpress I cannot get access to the site. This is a big problem becasuse this means I can only access the site from the server.

The URI's in the admin > options > general page are http://localhost/wordpress. I tried changing them to http://servername/wordpress but I still recieved the same error. The error is :
Apache/2.2.4 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.2.4 OpenSSL/0.9.8e mod_fastcgi/mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0404142202 PHP/5.2.1 mod_perl/2.0.3 Perl/v5.8.8 Server at servername Port 80.

Any ideas?

General tab:

WordPress address (URL): http://servername/wordpress
Blog address (URL):http://servername/wordpress

both have to have the servername url

Privacy Tab:

Blog visibility:

I would like my blog to be visible to everyone, including search engines (like Google, Sphere, Technorati) and archivers

is the selection to promote best access.

these are the access settings from my own linux and apache based wordpress blog.
