httpd-xampp.conf: How to allow access to an external IP besides localhost?

I haven't found the right answer that works for me in other questions. This is how the httpd-xampp.conf looks like originally:

#
# New XAMPP security concept
#
<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
        Require local
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

What should I do if I want to add another IP address besides the Require local?

For example, below Require local I have tried the following:

allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xx

That is to say:

#
# New XAMPP security concept
#
<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
        Require local
        allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xx
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

But it still blocks the access to that external IP.

How do I fix this? How can I add more IP addresses to allow them access?

I am using XAMPP 5.6.3 under a Windows environment.

allow from all will not work along with Require local. Instead, try Require ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xx

For Example:

# New XAMPP security concept
#
<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
    Require local
    Require ip 10.0.0.1
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

I tried this and it works. Be careful though. This means that anyone in your LAN can access it. Deepak Naik's answer is safer.

#
# New XAMPP security concept
#
<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
    # Require local
    Require all granted
ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

<Directory "C:/xampp/">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Require all granted
</Directory>

This is what i added in the end of file \xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf file before tag

Add below code in to file d:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf:

<IfModule alias_module>
...
    Alias / "d:/xampp/my/folder/"
    <Directory "d:/xampp/my/folder">
        AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

Above config can access from http://127.0.0.1/

Note: someone suggest that replace from Require local to Require all granted but not work for me

<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
    # Require local
    Require all granted
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

For Ubuntu xampp,
Go to /opt/lampp/etc/extra/
and open httpd-xampp.conf file and add below lines to get remote access,
    Order allow,deny
    Require all granted
    Allow from all

in /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin section.

And restart lampp using, /opt/lampp/lampp restart

<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from all
Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 
ErrorDocument 403 /error/HTTP_XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var

add to txt file > httpd-xampp.conf

<Directory "E:/xampp/phpMyAdmin/">
AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted

In windows all you have to do is to go to windows search Allow an app through Windows Firewall.click on Allow another app select Apache and mark public and private both . Open cmd by pressing windows button+r write cmd than in cmd write ipconfig find out your ip . than open up your browser write down your ip http://172.16..x and you will be on the xampp startup page.if you want to access your local site simply put / infront of your ip e.g http://192.168.1.x/yousite. Now you are able to access your website in private network computers .

i hope this will resolve your problem

Open for new app "HTTPD" (Apache server) in your Firewall
