I have just installed XAMPP on my machine, and when trying to access sub folders in htdocs I get the following error.
Object not found! The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 404
localhost
Apache/2.4.4 (Win32) OpenSSL/0.9.8y PHP/5.4.19"
What default security changes do I need to make in order to access child folders of htdocs? Thanks!
Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
You're having problem because the object really doesn't exist in your htdocs directory.
You don't have to append xampp after localhost or 127.0.0.1 because xampp will treat it as an object or a folder under htdocs.
if you want to access your blog, make sure you have a blog folder under htdocs and put in your URL localhost/blog
Just make sure you have the .htaccess in your project's public directory
If you don't have the file then create one and paste the below code in your .htaccess file.
Code:-
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Drixson Oseña you are right but when you newly install xampp on your system "Object not found!
"The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again. If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster. Error 404 localhost Apache/2.4.7 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.1e PHP/5.5.6"
However all folder in the htdocs but only open is that xampp website because of index.php error, so that's not a big deal just remove the index.html and index.php and try to open localhost again you'll be succeed.
Agree @Drixson Oseña: You should not write localhost/xampp/...., else write for e.g: localhost/mw-config/index.php
well, i had a similar problem, so when i entered, lets say: localhost/test.php I would got Object not found warning! I solved my problem when i realized that windows changed my test.php into this test.php.txt. I changed my extension and voila! problem solved I could finaly acceses localhost/test.php.
Make sure you also start the MySQL service in Xampp control panel. This might resolve this.
The issue is the object(project) folder and it is really not in the localhost.
Check the following things (Windows User)
1. project folder in htdocs
2. spelling of the project folder in htdocs C:\xampp\htdocs\projectname
3. Public folder inside project folder C:\xampp\htdocs\projectname\public
First you have to check if FileZilla is running on xampp control panel Than such error can occur You have to stop the FileZilla service from Xampp control panel
I had recently the same issue, It might not be the same as your case, but if anyone has a similar situation as mine, somehow I deleted the .htaccess file in the root of my app, so I copied it back from a backup and it worked
Solution for windows users: XAMPP
Go to: path:\xampp\apache\conf\extra
Open file named httpd-vhosts.conf
comment below lines if they are enabled: comment all lines in between
I got into something like this, and for me changing the .htaccess file into below worked great (it was originally meant to be used in Drupal projects).

but I have done some coding into htdocs/index.php and made this like wamp homepage some thing like this
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-dUcqacTOLPVC1ORS1saGdOclU/edit?usp=drivesdk
Enter the command in Terminal:
sudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf
and comment the line as below.
